Ride/watch at Laguna
Ride a Harley across the states
Trip to Europe on my bike

Where do you start?

Win a race
Grow my Ducati collection, would like a nice 750F1, 72 green frame, 80'ish 900SS, 998R and on and on and on
Go to pretty much every round of the GP's, not necessarily in the same year.
Lots and lots of things ...

But a few non-biking ones that would be very cool:
Deep dive on some WW2 wrecks
Bungee off a helicopter at around 5000 feet, then detach the cable dropping into a freefall jump - how cool would that be!!!
and on and on and on ....

yeah, yeah...... its the bit to do with sliding across the seat matey!

If I didnt slide over, the pegs/cans would hit the deck first (and I have scraped both, on both sides!:D ) - and I'm not happy about shifting in the seat - so thats what I'd like to try & overcome!:)

Theres not too much I'd really like to do that I haven't already done (realistically).

I live 2 minutes from Heysham port and the wifes relatives live in IOM so the TT is easy to get to.
I've raced at most UK tracks, my sponsors wouldn't sponsor me to ride at the TT because they said it was too dangerous (and I'm not sure I was good enough anyway)
I've toured europe on a bike
Done race schools
Raced minimoto
Raced motocross
Done green lanes trail riding
Been to Canada racing motocross
Been to most foreign places I wanted to go
Had sex with 2 women at same time (had to throw that in - I've still got the cheesy grin :D )


Next on my list is:-

own a 748
see my son grow up to be world GP champ
Retire at 40
Win big at vegas
come back from tour of duty alive

It actually happened the day I picked my first Ducati up. People told me it would be a 'pulling' bike but I didn't think it would happen that quick.
Perhaps you are riding the wrong bike:D
