  • Ride to my potential on a regular basis - beat the fear freeze.
  • Design and build my own (awesome, architects nightmare) house
  • Run my own business, at least briefly
  • Help someone out with a skill I have.
  • Make something of my uni degree
  • Drive the Nurburgring, in my own car.
  • Ride Whistler and NZ
  • Create a family
  • Provide a comfortable, fun life for them, whilst instilling good values
  • Get an LTS-DH for the loungeroom wall (in my big arse house, lol)

A bit materialistic, maybe. Honestly, I found it rather difficult to come up with a list, I'm not a planner, so maybe its more fun things to before I die.
