Life on the road in the Cadillac was nowhere near the same experience as on a bike, but there were benefits. Jacquie and I quickly settled into a happy routine in our climate controlled environment while the bikes settled into the usual riding patterns and routines that are so familiar. I found my mind slipping into biker mode from time-to-time, like reacting to changing lane positions when the bikes warned of approaching road hazards. I had to catch myself a couple of times when a natural urge would have had me slip by Ian and Glenn to move up in the order or take my turn in the lead. On some of the better riding roads the Cadillac provided some thrills as we held the turns with the bikes and had plenty of pull to keep up in the straights. As always, the evenings brought a great mix of good food, stories and antics that can only be shared with trusted friends. I’m glad I went along for the ride. Neil
