Fun. As I put on my profile, I LOVE doing things outdoors. Like, mountain biking...
I got this second hand bike off of CraigsList for $25 USD and wound up dumping close to $100 in helmet, parts, n stuffs.
First time out, I crash! I was wearing my belt at the time, got a nasty blister, which inspired me to buy a better seat for the bike. (I have a nice gel pad and wide seat now.) Carrying the bike back to the car over a mile was unfun, but great exercise! I had gotten something into the rear spokes of the wheel which mangled the wheel and so it was un-ridable.

Well, two wheels later, I get back out again, this time without mishap. Beautiful day, riding through a little mud, but mostly easy to go down by the creeks and through old growth forests. No one was out there, just me making awesome time down the trails.
It is very liberating, the feeling of freedom and speed of mountain biking. Great exercise and gets you away from all the people, the stupidity, the pollution, everything. You stay focused on the task at hand, and get to enjoy being surrounded by nature. The best way to discover your OWN nature is get back TO nature.
I find this fun, but also therapeutic.
What about you?
