Cycled up Alpe d'Huez last month and just ticked another box on my bucket list this evening by seeing Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band live at Hampden. Superb, incredible showman 8)

Anyone else ticked any boxes recently?

    Did 100k which joined the list when I started cycling.
    Another would be to cycle through the complete Napa Valley.

    I think it's a great thing having a bucket list, tick as many boxes as you can.


    Btw, my first Album was Born in the USA.

    Did you nick the title from Bruce Springsteen or did he nick it from you?

    I have crossed quite a few off, some by planning and some being by being in the right place at the right time. My favourite one was flying in a biplane - i was at an air show a few years ago and they had a guy with a tiger moth. I got chatting to him and brazenly asked if i could get a ride when he was next flying. He asked me to return in an hour and i was in the no2 seat during his display.

    Now wouldnt it be a great thread for people to post a bucket list and see if any other forum member could help them cross one off ? :)

    Not a bad idea. Some will be impossible but there must be stuff that is doable.

    Funnily enough, I couldn't get an answer from the Portuguese RSPCA.

    But you can expect a visit from the local Donkey sanctuary! (nearest thing I could find to the RSPCA)

    I often think what I'd like to do, thinking I've never done owt. Then I look at my 'tick list' and realised I've done freaking loads. I'm a lucky boy.
