I once rode up to Washington DC from BR with my dad to meet the rest of the family that had gone ahead. For two days I listened to my music. Most of it on my headphones. Made him listen to it when I didn’t have headphones on. We didn’t ignore each other but didn’t really talk that much. This was 1996. He died in 2005. I think about that missed opportunity to talk with my dad without others around more often than you’d believe. Do not frick this up.

Thanks for all the advice. We spend a LOT of time in the car together traveling for biking. We ARE about to get to the point that he does trips on his own, but we are fortunate to get to do a lot of long road trips together and as a whole family with mom and sibling along as well.

You all are right though, in podcasts I listen to, a lot of pro racers reminisce on how amazing it was to travel so much with their dads for racing in their youth. It’s a pretty precious gift.
