  • How Adventurous Are You?

    Over the weekend, I attended the Adventure For Travel Expo in New York City. (Warning, there will be lots of great content, information, pictures and videos from this event!)

    I love a great adventure. At the expo, I witnessed an indoor Zip line. (Your editor did not get a chance to do this because of a 2 hour wait.) It looked like a lot of fun!

    I am also sad to tell our readers that there are simple things I don't know how to do. For instance, I can't ride a bicycle or swim.

    But, I'll do a zip line in a heart beat!

    How adventurous are you? Do you know how to swim or ride a bike?

    I LOVE zip lining! I went when Hocking Hills in Ohio opened theirs. Amazingggggg.

    I really really want to rappel, so that's probably next on my adventure list.

    I can swim and ride a bike, though I haven't done that second one in years. D:

    @live_for_love@xanga - Zip lines are fun.  I also enjoy Rappelling and Mountain Climbing.  Cliff Diving even.

    I think I could classify myself as being physically adventurous.  I enjoy skydiving, for one.  I've never BASE jumped, I think that's just too insane though, nevermind I've been in trouble with the law enough in my life, I don't like jail.

    I definitely swim, being a surfer and a Free Diver (SCUBA too, but I prefer Free Diving), and bike; trying to train for Ironman Triathlon here in Hawai'i.

    I can swim and ride a bike but that doesn't make me adventurous. I don't know what does.

    I can ride a bike and I know how to swim... I could do with a little more adventure though... I've been kinda boring lately lol  =)

    Yes to both--I wouldn't consider either necessarily "adventurous," though...unless perhaps cross country biking along the edges of mountains or the like OR swimming deep amidst the ocean or waters in the wild somewhere!  ;D

    I used to not be adventurous at all; now my "To Do" list (before I die) is filled with adventurous-type things...it's called "adrenaline rush"--nothing like them! :D

    I consider myself pretty darn adventurous! There's no much I don't think I wouldn't try.


    I've been zip lining many times and white water rafting and SCUBA diving, as well as rappelling and rock climbing (both on real rocks). I also snow ski quite often and will do the blacks and sometimes the double blacks - though those are more difficult than they are scary really. I'd LOVE to go skydiving and bungee jumping.


    I've been swimming since I was 3 and riding a bike since about the same time (w/o training wheels since I was 7).
