"Wish I could do that...."

[clublights]

You can see Kevin Schwantz do full-lock sliding in this one. Kevin was the guy I wanted to ride like. Nothing on earth is more fun than running a motorcycle through the turns at your limit, having to buy new tires because the sides were worn out but the middle still had tread. I cherish those memories on the Peak-to-Peak, St. Vrain North and South, Loveland Pass, Squaw Pass, Deckers, the old I25-to-36 lefthander, and a host of other places. Just being on a motorcycle in the mountains doing 100+ everywhere you dared...nothing like it.





Of course I wouldn't do any of that nowadays, too much traffic and too many inattentive drivers, back when I was being reckless no one had cell phones and texting didn't exist.

Wayne and Kevin were both top notch . but lets face it Mick was the GOD of 500CC two strokes.....

Yeah...I'll have to agree, Doohan was the best but not as entertaining as Wayne and Kevin.

Three Words.....


Isle Of Man.

I'd just be happy to go ... I'm not where close to good enough to race it .
I also wanna ride the PCH end to end ...

Believe me... if only I had the funds and time.. I'd be racing this sh*t till my right wrist hurts or something

I wish I could grow hair like Mike!!!! Or anyone that can grow it on the top of their head for that matter.

I've been getting my shampoo at beauty salon supplier... better than most Wallyworld stuff

To many very, very, very talented riders out there for sure... and they keep that cray cray (to the normal eyes) on the track.... I miss the burning sensation in the eyes trying to keep up with the local experts on the track.... of course that's after being lapped once or twice

I wish I could make my good friend's 11 year old brother not have leukemia.

How it be to surf like these guys.

The lifestyle has to be one of the best in the world too

Well... what made me decide to come up with this thread..... I've been thinking.... a new year is around the corner.

"The Bucket list" of things or even one thing to try and cross out... and maybe get at least a feel for it again or even for the first time.
I know shit like F1 racing is out of the question, but going to a go-cart track that rents out shifter carts is probably going to get you closer to that experience than you think.

... but one day... one day... I maybe able to out shoot Hoser and TimK in a match, and using this new shampoo might do the trick

I was thinking of starting a similar thread, but mine was more stuff like what you CAN do in the next 12 months. Here was my list.
- Move up from Marksman in IDPA.
- Shoot a state match.
- Beat my 5k time of 25:00 min.
- Refinance my house.
- Get my business officially off the ground.

All those are so realistic (boring) that I could probably take care of the whole list in a month, rather than a year, so I didn't bother starting the thread. This one is more exciting.

Yours seem at least obtainable. I don't care if I saved 160 a shot like Sullenbuger....I'm probably never gonna get my hands on a P-51. I'd settle for a ride though. That's achievable.
