If it's too rough to dive, go surf!

Scuba provides the opportunity to reach zen while underwater. If you know what I mean, enough said.

I am 47 now. I've been certified since 2011 and never done it again until last year. Ever since I've been hooked on studying how to correctly dive, bought all my own gear, and have been thinking about diving everywhere that allows it. I never thought I am in a midlife crisis until I saw this post. Now I have come to terms with that idea of hey "This is my midlife crisis". No complaints here. I love it!!

Funny, I was going to post just the opposite. Cycling was way more expensive and dangerous for me... Broken bones, broken bikes, concussions, new bikes, ER visits, infections (road rash), race fees.

I am always happy when a student shows up and they've been a cyclist - I've never had one say that diving is too expensive.

I only ride rail trails and some light single track. I di break my hip socket last year in a fall that was stupid, totally my fault, and going at less than 5mph. Basically fell over and landed just wrong on the wooden deck of a bridge on the trail. And I do have 4K in my new bike but....

Between diving and your wife, only one of them is an ex.

That would be that wife that I don't have anymore. Still got the got the mistress.

“Did scuba prevent you from having a midlife crisis?”
No, it created a mid life crisis, a financial one.
