    Ok how may have you done?

    Things you should try before your 50 | Daily Mail Online

    how many have you done?

    30

    not sure they would be my top 50.

    Ride a horse should be in there, as should be doing a slalom course Canoe or Ski your choice.

    No volunteering, mechanical skill, artistic skill etc.

    They seem a little empty The Trevi fountain / Stone Henge versus the Louvre, The National, Statue of Liberty / Ellis Island, Brownsea Island etc.

    Specific as well Oktoberfest, not Earls Court or other Camra festivals.

    Ride a vespa not a motorcycle or scooter. If you haven't had a 750 between your legs you haven't lived.

    Sex in the sea is better, less sand, sex in a wood even more fun. Sex in a busy corridor is just kinky!

    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

        Never ever ride a Vespa, nasty unbalanced things; Lambrettas are king. Otherwise I've not ridden an elephant and can't swim, but I've done the rest. Most of them before I turned 50...
        Blog? What blog...?

          26. Could have been 27 but I didn't see the point in throwing a coin into the Trevi fountain.
          Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

            Couldn't agree more here's mine.
            "why ride a vespa when you can push a lambretta?"

            As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see "the River Tiber foaming with much blood."

              19. Better get on with it.

              Though I can't see the appeal in a lot of those.
              Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

                  28. Many of the ones I haven't done, I wouldn't want to do anyway, so pretty good in all.

                  A threesome, on a beach, with dolphins sounds interesting.

                    Now that's nice. A bit more modded than my old TV200 though (although that would do a genuine 70 in 1968...). There are still a few spotless originals around this area, but I can't help thinking if I did go back to two wheels now all I could manage would be a big ol' Harley - if only to carry the weight!
