Biking beats space travel

More people dream of riding a motorcycle than going in to space according to a recent survey conducted for the BBC.

The pole asked 20,000 people the one thing they most wanted to do before they died and more of them said they wanted to ride a motorcycle than go in to space, climb Mount Everest, or… visit Disney World.

The survey was conducted for a new BBC show, 50 Things To Do Before You Die, which will be shown on BBC1 at 8pm on Wednesday, September 17. Swimming with Dolphins topped the wish-list but the survey showed riding a bike is more inviting than Cowboy ranching, trekking through the rainforest, or watching the sunset over Ayres Rock.
