Planning a motorcycle road trip to see an old friend comes with a certain nostalgia risk…
Will it be as easy as it was when I was 20? Is my focus still there? After sleeping on a mat in a tent, how fit will I be to ride the next morning? How will it feel to travel solo again after all these years - and not sharing those moments of beauty with my family?
And the killer question for a parent: How do I balance my need for solo adventure with the risks that come with it?
I’m curious to see how reason will balance nostalgia over the next few days. And I haven’t even touched on the carbon footprint issue yet. Wish me luck!
