Rugby, fishing, hunting, mountain biking

In my time away from work I enjoy getting into the outdoors as much as I can. I've played rugby since I was 4 and still manage to get the boots on. Recently mountain biking and hunting have consumed most of my free time and I enjoy these activities both with friends and by myself.
