    1. Backflip

    2. Ride around the world

    3. Have time to ride as much as I’d like to

    #2 I plan to do in a gap year after university.

    #1 will have to wait until I’ve done #2 and #3, because I’ll probably break my neck. Need a big ramp and a lake to practice I think.

    1. Big game fishing in the Indian ocean
    2. Setup and run my own business
    3. Design and build my own house

    All doable, some more doable than others.

    mmmm. there are several of the above that i have done, none of them involving the ladies in the photos, mind.

    had/still have own business. have designed (very adlib) and built myself a ‘house’ (more of a hut). done two of the three mentioned by TINASpoon (have driven round it though). have built my own bike (fixed gear) from scratch (inc. painting, wheel build and putting together) as well as putting other together. already lived by the alps (will retire there by the time i’m 45 but, thinking Slovinia – it’s cheaper than germany/austria).

    1) dirt jumps with silly steep kickers. have tried. last time was last week but i always bottle out at the last minute when i see this 2′ high wall of dirt in front of me.

    2) apologise to various people that i have/may have upset in my time but never had the courage/face to do so whether it be at the time or at a later date.

    3) spend more time with family, especially my parents but, alas i am not there to do so and ‘life’ gets in the way of living/doing what you want to in life. we speak often but i know my mum misses me not being there for her. dad is a little more ambiguous and we get on better since i left the UK. would really like to get down the pub and talk bolloks more often,not just when i visit.

    – first takes pratice, second takes guts and the third i still (luckily) have time resolve.
