Your Bucket List
This thread got me thinking, what is on your bucket list? Post some things you would like to do, see, or experience before you're pushing up those daisies.
I shall start. In no particular order... + Become an orthopedic surgeon + Do a ≥40' backflip on a bicycle. In other words, ride a mega ramp + Exceed 200mph on a motorcycle + Scuba dive in at least 5 really exotic places + Have a full blown South American ayahuasca experience + Get fully certified in accelerated free fall so I can jump unassisted + Visit The Great Pyramids + If at all possible within my lifetime, go into space + Drive the Nürburgring. Bonus points for doing it in an awesome car + Talk to Jacque Fresco in person + Attend an Isle of Man TT EDIT: Not really a bucket list item, but a good related article: Roads to Drive Before You Die |
No one has any goals?!
|
Another aspiring surgeon in the house. Still haven't started rotations so I cannot get more specific
Too lazy to write any other goals at the moment |
Too lazy to write a comment. Totally up for becoming a doctor.
PERRRRFECT. |
+ Skydive
+ 200MPH+ in a car + Drive with GT or Prototype drivers + Shake the hand of our Lord Jeremy Clarkson + Drive on the Nürburgring + Drive on the Autoban + Drive Imola Circuit + Go to Japan + Learn to wakeboard |

But seriously though, that really is one of the reasons I posted this: to get some more ideas of cool shit to do. |
I'm at a point in my life where I can look back on the things I've done and realize I accomplished most of the things I wanted to do. I jumped out of airplanes. I sailed with some friends from San Diego to Radio Bay in Hilo, Hawaii. While stationed in Japan I obtained my first degree black belt in Judo. I had a very interesting stint of seven years being a cop in the suburbs of Detroit. I rode motorcycles for over 60 years with only one roadway accident four years ago which was my last ride.
Looking back there was really only one thing I would like to have done and never did. While living in San Diego I would like to have learned to surf but that's not really bad as I was too busy sailing and riding motorcycles. |
Not sure how Detroit was at the time you were a cop there, but if it was anything even remotely like it is today, then that's the most impressive part of all of those things! Haha I hope one day I can say something similar.

Go to Bora Bora, learn to drift like a pro and not the tool I look like when I do it, see the Mayan temples, Pyramids in Egypt, Go to Austraila and Japan.
And bang Olivia Wilde!!!!! |

Well, the 200mph Club Membership seems to be a pretty universal goal.
|
I didnt know that was a Thing ? Ive been Close in a car but not the big 200 well by close I mean 170 lol
Nm to Own a car that goes 200mph? |
It's not an actual club, just more of a phrase I hear people refer to. Just like the Mile High Club.
170 in a car is pretty damn fast. I think the fastest I've ever been in a car was like ~160 in my friend's 2006 Corolla in 2007. I wasn't driving though, just riding shotgun. My R6 tops out at 163, so you have actually gone faster in a car than I have on a bike, which is impressive! |
My fastest is 182 in Ferrari 458 Italia I rented in Vegas. Gotta love the desert on out skirts!

I won some Money so I splurged. $2500 for the day and $10, 000 security deposit. I won $15, 000. Got my 10 stacks back. And still smiling
|
+ Find a job I truly am excited to show up to day in and day out
+ Live in a house with a 2-3 car garage that I can turn into a workshop for my cars + Own an Aston Martin for at least 1 year + See the 7 wonders of the world + Help my parents retire to wherever they choose + See the sun rise over the pyramids, the amazon, the serengeti + Have the patience to realize I cannot have all this at 24 just yet |
My fastest has been 155 MPH in the M3... not enough straights here to be able to do more... plus the roads suck...

Attachment 47239 To bad I did this before I could: Attachment 47240 I hit 167 on mine, but we all know how the speedos are on bikes, could be +/-~5 mph haha... Sorry to thread jack, maybe I'll pick up a dedicated track bike and stay off the streets for a bit. |

"Oh, that guy just said he went 160mph in a Corolla. Well that's just fine. Just fine." - Everyone until just now |
Meet the perfect wife.
My own home with a badass shop. Skydiving. No tandem shit either. I've played guitar my whole life but, never had the guts to preform for anyone. Do it once. Visit Japan and Venice. Go to one of those performance driving schools for better myself. Self teaching only goes so far... Should no. 1 and 2 happen I'd like to host our first family reunion/cook out at said place. Other than bro/sister, parents and grandparents the rest of my family I don't even know their names... |
