Retirement is only boring, if a person lets it be. I have enough projects to last until I'm 120. I have a couple that are drivers, but most are in pieces, waiting for the funding and time to build them. The cost to accomplish those have steadily risen over the years and have become prohibitive for me, so it takes longer.
Just have 1 nice driver and go to shows and cruises and you can keep boredom at bay. Get a basket case project and work 12 hrs a day, if you want.
I live on almost 3 acres, so there is a considerable amount of time spent on improving and maintaining that too. Yard was a mess when we moved here 3 yrs ago, so I have plenty of improving in the coming years.

I don't spend much time on forums over the summer, but winter can get more difficult to find the motivation to go out in the shop, turn up the heat and work on a car. Too easy to just sit at a desk and screw around on a computer.
