Previously showjumping/cross country events, but my boy is now retired

 

 

Mean't to say in my first post. I've been training in TaeKwon -Do for 20 years and I was in Scotland team. I ruptured my anterior cruciate ligament in may 2010 and had a full ACL reconstruction in Janurary this year.

Started Boxing to keep the pressure off my Knee and to loose some weight in September. I'm due to start back my own training in two weeks.

 

MPLavery (my other half) got his 3rd Dan in TaeKwon-Do last year, he was in the England team a couple of years ago and was teaching up until July this year, but has taken a break from it and going back next year, he has knee issues but nothing like that!!

I practise MMA pretty regularly, used to train 3 or 4 times a week at Tsunami gym in Cambridge but I don't spend much time in Cambridge these days so not as regular any more unfortunately. I'm also working towards a PPL, so most of my 'hobbies' time at weekends gets taken up with that these days

I have rc nitro cars and trucks which are a sh1tload of fun.

 

Used to be into the gym in a big way and struggling to get back into it(you have seen the poor efforts first hand Stuarty )

 

Done kickboxing for a bit.

 

Used to play basketball, rugby and ice hockey when I was a bit younger.

 

Now it's all about the cars and the gym.

[geoff-r]

Bikes and snowboarding and I really must get back into going to the gym.

[Gudzy]

I play squash and have had a European ranking of 11 as a junior.

 

I still play for local teams but not to that kind of level anymore, it's too much like hard work!

Airsoft. Some of you will know it but I imagine most won't! It's similar to paintball, but with fully automatics bb guns, and a lot more like Military Simulation. The guns look and perform better, the players are better (not all 10 year old chav birthday parties!) and I love it! Basically grown men playing soldiers, but it's good exercise and good fun!

Play all over the place mate, always happy to make an awesome roadtrip to a site (especially in a Zed.. the boot is actually a good shape for gun bags!)

 

Xsite High Wycombe was my first site and my 'regular' site (although dont play that regularly outside summer because team mates are at Uni). Xsite is a bit aimed at new players and does more paintball style games, but its very well run and marshalled and is a good day out. Also pop down to Ground Zero every now and then, woodland and Urban, been to Urban Assault up in Peterbrough too. And a couple of other one time trips! Yourself?
