I used to take long weekend rides on a road bike while at NYC and in Cambridge. Later on I spent a lot of time wandering and backpacking around the mountains and mesas of northern New Mexico and southern Colorado.

I played basketball for many years and was a member of these teams: Sokol Nusle, Czech junior team, University of Wyoming, Catalina Foothills High School, and Cambridge Cats.

I also volunteered as a basketball coach for Cambridge Cats and as a referee for YMCA-Los Alamos, both for children aged 8-11 years.
