This weekend I'm babysitting a (not well, post operative) 81 year old step father-in-law and we just (inadvisedly) watched Morgan and Jack run to the end. What would be on your bucket list?

I'm seriously starting to compile mine......[/u]
FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits
CAADX 105 beastie for bumpy bits
Litespeed L3 for Strava bits

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

    We've been doing something not quite so grim but thinking about Make-A-Wish for my son after he's finished his current cancer treatment. He wants to go fishing in Sardinia.

    For me, I think I'd like to drive an F1 car

    Copulate in zero G preferably in actual space rather than the vomit comet, probably wouldn't get long enough.

    Detonate a nuke in Central London and watch it wipe out everything from the top of Parliament Hill.

    Witness a major earthquake/tsunami/volcano/meteor destroy a large city.

    Nothing too grand or remotely realistic...
    I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.

    Complete the 'Commando Course' of the nine mile speed march, the endurance course, the Tarzan assault course and the 30 miler.

    Drive route 66

    Over rated; Kenya, Mexico, Belize, Siipidan all way better.


    In my list, I'd love to start cave diving again

    Ah, be fit enough, just once, to really fly up the Alps and Pyrenees, rather than grovelling.

    That's a good thing. That way, when you fail, you're less disappointed.

    Yes, I might have been looking at Demotivators, what of it?
    Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.
