Seems to me the perfect achievement for someone without a mid life wish list is to become a Buddhist.That way, you can try to achieve something that doesn't revolve around material objects.
True, but posted on the wrong forum. 😉
My solution involves not working, or at least not working all the time.
I'm with you on that.

The devil makes work for idle hands. If you give up work sell the house immediately or you'll become a mason, plumber, roofer... .
My 'project' is a car, not a bike. Can't do links stuff on the ipad but pics here https://picasaweb.google.com/115660383436295169415/G46#5782838588926812274
1) pick a sport you want to compete/ fail/ die in in the 2016 Specialympics
2) search the world/ internet for an inventor/ doctor/ surgeon/ sturgeon who can provide you with an array of prosthetic attachments to aid you in your quest for special sporting excellence
3) get training, preferably on steps/ special escalators to 80s power ballads/ 90s happy hardcore

If I gave up work the decision would be made for me 🙂
I would live in a Yurt, the Mrs is not so keen 🙂
Tatts at Vince Neil Ink, Vegas, and a track day car.
Worked for me when 40 and miserable, now 43 and happy.
if the worst comes to the worst I have a drawer full of odd socks you can have 🙂
I was going to suggest cocaine and hookers but that will probably be covered under pirate..
avast!
sounds like you need a project, which should probably revolve around getting your garage door removed and having a wall put in, then drylining and insulating your garage and then putting in heating, carpet, a bar and a pool table......
then hosting an infamous ride night every Thursday
I was thinking of posting some piss-taking but I am not sure how much is appropriate in the circumstances, and I don't know WCA that well...
I've just bought a jump / slopestyle frame and I'm only 37. I've convinced myself I need to build some large dirt jumps after a mashed potato close encounter type moment at the dinner table where I got carried away moulding mash into a launch ramp.
Mines not a MLC as I know I'll never grow up .. only old.
WCA.. I can recommend kraken rum. Having an injury can sometimes give you time to think about new exploits and adventures. Loosing your foot may be the trigger you needed to stop and think about whats important and start planning.
Seriously though, buy a boat and get sailing.
Pretty sure you don't need 2 feet for that.
Saying that, are 2 feet REALLY required for biking?

Not the way I pedal.
Epic down river canoe trip somewhere exotic? Or is that too sensible?
I find that simplifying life is a better approach and enjoying doing something rather than buying something to add to the endless piles of stuff already owned (not talking about your stuff specifically).
Go somewhere amazing with the family and be reminded how beautiful things are and how great life can be. When I'm down (not quite the same as a midlife crisis I realise) I just grab my Kayak and go and paddle in the sea and take it all in. Simple things.

Did you not see the paralympics?
If you're gonna be a pirate, get a stuffed Parrot, real ones are nasty buggers!
Be the worlds first pirate ZR1 driver, 😀 roam the open M25 with a rusty Cutlass, a glint in your eye..and show no mercy...AAARRRRR!!!!!
Or even

Decontenting my life doesn't work for me as I am happy with what I have, not because if it.
Epic journeys are still up for a go.
I still fancy organizing the BBB foreign holiday. I just need to borrow a Hercules, some skis, a boat and some scuba gear.
Now I am a pirate these should be a lot easier to purloin.

I know the principle but can't think of anything else to do.there is your answer, don't fret, if you fancy doing something later , well do it .
lists are just that, [b]would you eat your way through a whole menu ?[/b][u]no , you pick something that appeals
That should be on any ones list
I achieved one of my life ambitions a few years ago when visiting Toronto : I drank Canada dry !
okay, out was actually only the Hard Rock Cafe out of beer (not american lager) but it still got me christened Steam Whistle English on my first night in the country. The beer was called Steam Whistle and I am english if that helps explain the name

Woah! Careful, you'll get yourself a reputation.
Henry Weston's Vintage Cider
Bombay Blue Sapphire
Buy a CD called Twist O Lettz..... and play it very loud
All three....but just be careful because the first two can accelerate you into oblivion if you are not careful
Saw some American bar tenders on TV commenting on how much the english can drink, they seemed a bit perturbed or nonplussed by it.
Have you tried going rock or ice climbing yet World Class Accident?
You can do that pretty well-ish with only one foot, especially ice climbing, you could have a fixed right foot attachement which didn't flex at the ankle, and kick in the crampon points and off you go.
Wonder if you could have metalwork put in in place of the bone which is missing? Hope you get a lot of second opinions before having the foot taken off.
Good luck in finding your crisis. :~)
