excellent thread. prioroties...............davidmc summed it up best. i sacrificed for 3 years to buy my dream bike. a customer of mine said to me, why on earth would you buy a $30,000 bike, and tour 3rd world countries? my response was, why do you purchase a similar cost SUV and take off 2 weeks a year to go to an all inclusive resort? if they have to ask, they won´t understand. i thought it was just myself that deviates from the norm of society. we dance to the beat of a different drummer. an illness in october made me focus on how i want to live my remainder. funny how similar many of us are. i put a mortgage on my house in vancouver, created rental income that allows me to live my dream. i am in the process of building a home just ñorth of acapulco. my jumping off point to tour mexico and visit vancouver occasionally. but my lifestyle is 100% built around touring and planning the next trip. hope you find your priorities jesse.
