I guess the term wanabee is determined by what your situation is now?
If you don't have a bike then you are a wanabee who is hopeful to get one.
If you have a bike but don't yet tour then you are a wanabee who wants to.
If you just tour the UK then you are a wanabee hoping to get abroad ...
... and so on until you wanabee the person who can buy a new GS and take off round the world.
I'm 54, bike owner, regular UK and occasional european tourer who is planning a bigger and longer 2011 trip (with another guy on here and hopefully a couple more..). I've made plans to take my pension early at 55 next year and quit my present job (I will get something else when I return). I have already sold my house and am in rented accomodation which I can then vacate and get a new one when I get back, and am learning as much as possible by visiting the HUBB often to get best advice on equipment and paperwork etc. In my eyes that makes me a serious wanabee for a long Europe/Scandinavia tour, maybe in readiness for a much bigger Asia tour in 2012 perhaps?
But I'll always be a wanabee as there will always be a trip I'd love to do - when does that ever stop being the case?
