The bucket list
 

Things you want (or must) do before you shift off terra firma.

Some of mine are easily achievable, others require input of mucho wonga

I've seen people who've passed away, who've never done anything interesting or unusual (when they've been able to) or they've passed away to young to do these things.

I may not achieve all of these, but its good to have goals & dreams.

So here's a some I can think of.

1. See killer whales in the wild (no captive ones thank you)
2. see the Northern lights
3. Visit Kennedy Space centre
4. Transit the Panama Canal on a ship
5. Take the Orient Express
6. Cycle up Alpe D'huez
7. Go to the TT again (haven't been since 83)
8. Travel across Canada by train
9. Swim with sharks (i'll be in a cage :p)
10. Visit New York (don't really know why)
11. ?

Re: The bucket list
 

All of mine revolved around sex and the U ratings prevents me from saying what they were. Suffice to say mission accomplished and the mother usually makes a better breakfast than her daughter.

11. Go to the NW200
12. Be deported from a country (preferably the USA)

Re: The bucket list
 

Yes, I only posted my U rated ones :p

Re: The bucket list
 

Can't complain about my lot so far......might have liked to have done a bit more X rated stuff, but hey ho, I'd like to do these...

1. Sail in a tall ship somewhere warm and climb the rigging at Sea
2. Get fit enough to box again (at least 3 competitive rounds)
3. Run the NY marathon
4. Race bikes again or at least regular track days
5. Swim with Dolphins (not sharks, jeez?)
6. Buy a place by the South UK coast and another in Italy
7. Ride across Australlia and US coast to coast
8. See my kids get through college and get jobs before they give me a nervous breakdown

Re: The bucket list
 

1. Visit the Isle of Man ride there, not race and see the TT
2. See my all time favourite group RUSH live on stage
3. Drive my dad in Misano in a Ferrari with the sun shining
4. Take my mom Lourdes and watch her face when she gets there
5. Ride dirt-bikes in Sicily with my two sons in the woods
6. Ride overland to England and back on a Honda CBR 954 2002
7. Stay in love for the rest of my life and not get hurt (too much)
8. Forget what needs forgetting and remember what is worth remembering
9. Have the people around me respect me for what I am and not for what they expect me to be
10. Die in peace

Re: The bucket list
 

1. See more of the children - they're scattered far and wide now.
2. Motorhome through the Rockies.
3. Scuba dive the Barrier reef.
4. Safari in Kenya.
5. Lie on the beach in the Seychelles.
6. See the Grand Canyon (october this year).
7. Visit the Great Wall of China.
8. Fly in a Spitfire.
9. Retire BEFORE I die.
10. Apart number 9, all the others are would like to do. I'm pretty happy with my lot to be honest.

Re: The bucket list
 

Yes, no 9 is the most important to achieve, plus keep drawing the pension for as long as you can

I'll add your 6, 7 & 8 to my list, although my missus isn't keen on long haul flights

Re: The bucket list
 

11. See Paris Roubaix cycle race (next year?)

Re: The bucket list
 

1. All of the above.
2. Do it all with a smile on my face and in good company.
3. Stop planning and thinking about it and go 'kin do it.

One Life, Live It.
