·Nice thread. Still, I have to wonder if most posts are really indicative of an existential mid-life crisis, or if you all are just using the concept as an excuse to buy cool stuff you don’t need? 😗

··Melbourne AustraliaI wish you guys would stop posting skateboards, it triggers flashbacks..................
A 30 something Dad one Christmas morning at the Xmas barbie breakfast where copious amounts of bubbly and bacon were being consumed.
Being held at his home, no need to drive so the bubbly was going down like it was 10 cents a litre.
Young boy child comes by to show the adults his best Chrissy present ever and does a spin or two to amuse them.
Dad says "Outa the way Son, I'll show you how it's done" as he chomps another mouthful of bacon buttie and washes it down with bubbles.
Leaps on the skateboard and one thong slips sideways, the skateboard and parent career down the concrete driveway, spilling champers and bits of bacon roll until the inevitable happened ten feet into the journey.
Do you know how many parts of your body hurt after a hard landing? Ankles, skull, elbows, coccyx, pride ............................
I still wake in a cold sweat at night sometimes, and it's not the Nam memories (my experience there was sheltered compared to others).

The way I figure is that a mid-life crisis is usually less of a crisis and more of a man finally being able to afford some of the things he has wanted since he was thirteen. I've always wanted a Moto-Guzzi Eldorado (my dad rode one) and I am just now starting to make enough money to be able think about buying one in the next couple of years which will coincide with me hitting my forties.

That’s the kind of mid-life crisis I wanna have, too. In my case, I’d then have to get a steel/gold Navitimer and, um, Erika Eleniak (...just for clarity: that’s referring to what I wanted when I was thirteen, and not to what my dad rode 😎)

·For me its not sitting still, looking to visit the planet before I kick it. I'm no airline pilot just a regular guy, so I'm doing this my way minimum 4 star hotels preferably 5 star hotels,
last year it was New York, Toronto, Norway (always wanted to ride a mountain bike down a mountain did this in Norway) Naples, Amalfi, Capri & Sorrento. Caribbean through Panama then turn right to Costa Rica then up the coast to with a so far this year, London to Venice on the orient express, onward by road to Pizza, Florence then Rome. flew to Turkey, Lisbon. next week, Paris, south of France, Monaco. next month Calgary road trip to Vancouver, July in Singapore (I love this place) Switzerland. August, Cruise to Greek islands Bodrum Turkey. Then looking at Madeira and the Canary Islands for this winter.
Southern hemisphere will commence from 2019 though 2020.
My midlife crisis....I cant stay put. I cant put up loads of photos guys so in the spirit of mad dog has put some of his local phots, here`s my local. not a nice as it looks in mid winter. We mostly sail fish n dive, bomb around on our rib, thus the need for my Seamaster. The Speedmasters don't fit here but I have them cause I just love em ... so shoot me.
Madeira rocks!!!!!
