Getting out of photography, switching hobbies

[samal]

Well, I just want to say thanks to all the posters on this forum, I learned a lot here and enjoyed my stay.

I got the calling from my other hobby - motorcycles and I am picking up a dedicated track/race bike in addition to the street bike. I have been abusing my street ride on the track lately, and loved it, so it's time to get a proper track weapon.

Unfortunately, my wife said no additional funds are available for toys, so I have to re prioritize my hobbies - I have 3 - firearms, photography and riding and photography has to go for now - The seller is willing to take my 40D body and 18-50 lens as a partial trade for the bike and I have a buyer for my 70-200 lens. I will post other bits and pieces here for sale soon.

I hope to be able to slowly rebuild my photo kit in the future and come back

I'm A.D.D. with hobbies.
I did give up riding 2 years ago though, so I guess I went the opposite way.

Good luck though, and stay shiny side up!

I am still riding street and track, but I just realized that I am really missing my gear, so I am back here. Looking to get Canon 50D, 580 speedlite and couple lenses, I really liked my Sigma EX 18-50 F/2.8 and 70-200 f/2.8, so hopefully will have it again. My 40s B-Day is coming in a month so, that's going to be a gift for myself as I already have other midlife crisis toys

My other hobby is very exciting and we have local photographers at Gron4 Photography documenting it (I own this photos):

Wimmenz is for cold winter nights when riding is impractical. All other times the bike is paramount. Enjoy your time on the track.

Track Day weapon.

Yes it's a first generation Tuono.

Why would you give it up? A full life is what you should aim for. Besides they're great subjects.

If I had a choice between the two i mean, if i could have both i sure as anything would do and are you are right about them being good subjects, here is my dads:
