The snowmobiling out west thread got me thinking about stuff on my bucket list , snowmobiling in powder is one of mine . I also want to spin laps in a shifter kart. I dont have the most extravagant of a list ,just a few small ones that should be easily obtainable. Maybe a location hunt or 2 for whitetail deer with a bow is another. Just curious what activity you guys have in the back of your mind that you always wanted to do when ever life gives you a break.

Edit : and dont say switch from a hot water tank to on demand .

1. Snowboarding in AK while I can still charge.
2. Do some molly/E with my lady and get freaky
3. Take an E63 AMG or something similar across the country.

I really enjoy travel and my bucket list is primarily travel.

Want to visit Japan (Tokyo), Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand

Bro in law lives in Perth, Western Australia, so want to go visit him there, spend some time down unda

I have been to Europe often, but it's always been rushed, so I think I'd like to do a 2-3 week Airbnb in Paris or a small village in France or Italy, to just chill and "live the life" for a few weeks.

Alaska cruise and a Canadian train trip also sounds nice.

Just experience more of the world, it's joy, it's food and it's vibe

We don't much agree on politics, but our travel goals are nearly identical.

I'd like to ride the Trans-America trail on an old 2-stroke enduro bike, like a DT2 or maybe something a little newer like an IT-250.

I've been thinking about doing an Iron-Butt (1000 miles in 24 hrs) this summer on my Suzuki 1250 Bandit.

Also, attending a Supercross and National (Redbud) would be amazing.
I always thought it would be cool to attend every national and get a hand full of dirt from each track to put in a jar . At the end you would have a jar with the different layers of dirt from each track ,I thought it would be unique memorabilia.

When I was on the Castrol Jaguar IMSA team, we sent a car to LeMans in 1990 that ran in Silk Cut colors along with the 3 that the team in England sent. I was supposed to go over to do pit stops (I was the fueller on the Daytona 24hr winning car that same year) but got bumped at the last minute.
I was pissed off to no end, but the guys brought me back a Silk Cut ashtray filled with pea gravel from one of the gravel traps.
The car that we sent over won, so that ashtray and gravel hold a special place in my den!

Had one item on my bucket list, riding bulls. Did it for five years, check.

Next is saddle broncs, not as violent.

I think we agree more than you'd believe.

We just view things differently and some folks have preconceived notions of what I believe, when I have said and done the exact opposite.

Only one thing which is to visit every country in the world. 40 down, only 155 to go. BTW Dave (flarider) I've been to all of those you listed multiple times, riding a motorcycle across Vietnam/Laos with my wife and kids was freaking awesome!

I'm not that adventurous, and most wife most certainly isn't either.

Will that be easier than a bull because it's less violent ? May seem like a silly question but maybe something different about the Bronc makes it just as difficult
?

It’s not the level of difficulty I’m concerned with. Been working spur boards and Bronc machine lately. It’s the ending.

While Supercross, Motocross, and Enduro may all require some of the same skill sets, the inherent danger level is different.

The problem with two chicks at a time is that you will always find one hotter than the other and she will get more of your attention..the other will get jealous.

I want to ride mountain bikes in the Swiss Alps. Probably Zermatt, where the Matterhorn is.

Taking my wife to Hawaii for our 20th anniversary this year.

Release another full-length LP with my band.

Finally finish my book about my friend who survived getting shot in Mexico.

See my kids grow up to become successful professionals.Get some grandkids.

I will own a Porsche before I'm done.

My brother was a Seabee in Iceland several years ago.

Amazing place--camping, fishing, beautiful terrain, mtb, moto, snowboarding.....

Relaxed atmosphere, locals friendly to travelers.

23 hrs of sunlight part of the year so they don't turn the light off on the fun.

The one and only time I’ve snowboarded here, the conditions were dog shit (rain/snow the day I went, and an overall shit year for snow). Conditions this year are epic though, so I hope I can make time to head to Nagano before the season ends.
