Travel the northern half of Europe... for some reason I'd love to experience all the different cultures there. Plus I'd like to do a bit of family history research at the same time.

I'd go to Strongbadia and hang out with Strongbad for a while and I'd give Strongsad shit, because he's so annoying, then we'd go to bubs concession stand and buy flamethrowers that shoot 100 dollar chocolate bills.... hmmm....

Nah, I think I'd go to Germany, I lived there for 5 years and I would like to catch up with some Downhill as I wasn't into MTB untill I got to aussie land.

I would go to Antartica, cos there would be no one there to annoy me. And I could wander around naked if I wanted to and no one could say a thing!!! But hey England will have to do i s'pose. :)

Yeh, I wouldn't mind paying for Zooke to go to Antartica, everyone would win in that deal (I'm so going to die for that comment).
A trip to Europe with the afformentioned is forseeable, but it's either travel or study, and right now the latter has to take priority :( Whatever I did, actually thinking about it, bikes would have to be involved somehow. A cycle tour around Europe would be a great experience, as long as you pick the weather right. On that note, damn my brother, flew out last week to race in France for 7 months, what a lucky prick.

The Amazon. I'd give up just about everything to live there.

I don't think I'd really want to go anywhere.........¿

I like being here, having friends close by, trails out my front door, Bottle shops that sell shit to me and know me on a first time basis but still think I'm over 18.

What else could you ask for?

Guess what rik........your right, that was sooooo not nice. But hey at least I wouldn't have to put up with you and your stuff. Any way I'm running off to England all on my lonesomes, then I'm dragging Emerin with me!!! So I guess I'm getting my trip after all. :P

hehehehehhehehe... trouble man. That just spells trouble! :D Me and Zooke are doing that, but i'm following her. Should be really good. But yeah.. will be very cold. I leave in QLD's Summer to England's Winter... will be a shock to say the least.

I only get as far as Tokyo, but I go for a specific reason (martial arts). Yep its expensive. But everything is when going from Australia.

I wouldn't go to just one spot, just cruise around lots of different places and go wherever I got a hankering to go. My cousin did that for a few years and ran a travel website to pay for it. Diving in the galapagos, mountain climbing in bolivia, MTBs through brazil, taught english at a school in Nepal. The dude did everything! (yep, jealous bigtime)
PS: the site is www.thetravelrag.com, it's currently got a feature on downhill riding on some gnarly road in Bolivia.

I would do the world thing. I have already been to England once, that is enough. I would start in New Zealand then South America, North America, Europe, Asia then home. I would love to do all the best rides in those areas. Hit up the resorts especially WHISTLER. Do some North Shore exploring. Some never ending downhill runs in Europe. Enter in some of the mega endurance races. Watch some World Cups and NORBAs. Check out the roadies racing in Europe, especially Paris-Roubaix, Flanders and the Tour. I would also take a magic pill that got me fit and strong enough to rock climb 29/8a (those who climb will know what that means) like I used to, then I could climb in all the great spots around the world. Smith Rocks, Yosemite, Rumney, Heuco, Ceuse, Font., Majorca, Verdon.

Fark I won't be able to work now. I will be day dreaming all day. I will just have to draw some bike bits instead. What is powerball up to now......I will buy two tickets.......no, three. Then I will get some $2 jackpots........some scratchies.............mum!

BASE jump 4000-5000ft cliffs all dam day long with helicopters to take you back up.

After that, I'd head to Whistler, buy a Foes DHS Mono or SC V10 - and spend a summer there.

After that I'd head to Pakistan to trek to K2, past the Trango Towers.

Then jump them too.

Very expensive, but if i had all the money in the world then i could fix a lot of things too. Besides, I'll jump that bridge when I get to it.

oh and i also want to go bungee jumping and jump off those massive cliffs into water

I'm with devlin, I'd go anywhere that the riding was good...have you heard of endless summer?! Try hitting every place with a ski lift going over winter...whistler, thredbo, sunday river, those freaky places in europe...plus anywhere with good town riding...mmmmm that would be a goood trip...

Hrmm this is more of a pipe dream for a job/lifestyle thingy. Goto Whistler ( or any other comparable mountain park thingy) and be a snowboard instructor during winter, and a mountain biking instructor in summer.
sound good?

I like Canada! :D - in the words of Fabien Barel in 'the circus' hehe.
I'd have to say all around Canada, but mainly Vancouver and Whistler... I went before i was even into MTB and loved it!
Then maybe think about Spain and some other c00l places

Well yeah, you would have to.

As for where I'd go, I don't know actually; I'm not a huge travel freak yet, that can wait until I can afford to do it comfortably.

04-03-2004, 07:29 PM
i'd go around to all the good world cup tracks and ride em
