Travelling mainly.
We already have a road trip holiday booked for 2022. Flying into California, staying at Disneyland then doing the usual Hollywood/LA stuff before spending a few days driving up the coast towards San Francisco but stopping off at some of the beaches on the way.

Other than that on a broad scale I'd like to try and visit the old school 7 wonders of the world. I've yet to see even 1 in my life so I really need to kick start that off

Australia has always been on my radar and the wife has recently expressed interest in visiting Vietnam so maybe that could be something to try and get to planning.
So yeah my 10 year plan (and life plan in general) is to see as much of the world as i can

Already have diving trips to the Maldives and Indonesia booked and planning one to Palau in 2022. I'd also like to get back to French Polynesia sometime.


On the bike front, find a bike I like better than the Fazer.


Other than that, the main plan is to simply enjoy life!

Might sound a bit corny but just to live as I am with my beloved wife and be able to ride my bike for the next 10 years will do me. :woot
never look down on anyone unless you're helping them up.

Retire. My original plan when I was 18 was to retire at 50. Now I am nearly 52, it is looking more like 70 will be when I can retire though I would like to do it sooner.
Another ex-Fazer rider that is a foccer again

Yup me too.  I’m planning now for 55.  But Covid19 could destroy my plans.  Hope we find a way out of this soon!

The reason I started the thread is I'm very close to a big birthday with a 6 in it..... frightening to think the next will be 7.. .. assuming fortune looks kindly on me 🤗

At 67, the first part of the plan is to stay alive :)
The devil made me do it!

That was my original plan as well, but my wife's hobby of spending on our 7 grandkids , fancy holidays and seemingly permanently ongoing house improvements put paid to that.
Could have retired at 60 , but instead reduced my hours to 30 a week, but now thinking of just retiring in July when I am 63. Only trouble is now the wife is now talking about moving house , she wants to either move back up to somewhere near Largs where I was born or near Lyme Regis in Dorset.
I just want peace and quiet to mess around with old bikes, I have a 1971 YDS7 sat in boxes in the loft that is my first retirement project.
