I hate the hobbies question in interviews. I work 60 hours a week and have a toddler. My hobby is sleeping. What the hell else else do you want from me?

I have a bike which I rarely ride. My interview hobby is cycling (reading books also works). Silly questions deserve silly answers.
I use hiking and reading.

This is a lot easier to explain to a stranger who forming a judgement than "in the rare moments I'm not watching my kids, working, cleaning, or sleeping, I like to go shoot guns that I built."
