Oh boy, arrived at the parking garage where Eagle Riders were sorting all their customer out. What a trip, with THE worst taxi driver ever. I mean, come on “I can only drive OR use the sat nav” says our crazy driver who instead stopped at every opportunity to ask directions! Grrr.

Never mind, we finally found it. Chaos!! A group of Chinese were getting sorted for their tour.

Leaving us hanging around for a while waiting for some attention. And then our Trinny Trike turns up. She is a beauty!!

We finally set off for Milwaukee at around 12ish, cue a few dodgy turns and we arrived safe, well and dry (incredibly given the v bad weather warnings!) at the Iron Horse hotel in Milwaukee. Great spot, funky hotel. Just had to go christen the bar!

Woke up this morning (the day we are due to ride up to Milwaukee!) to severe weather warning and torrential rain with flooding!

Deep joy. Just look at the weather. Anyone got a car in exchange for a trike?

Welcome to 22 W Van Buren Street, Chicago, Illinois, former residence of one Mr Elwood Blues. Obviously the building has long since gone, ooo shake your tail feather.

And then iconic Route 66 (we rode that)

Oh and being with Mrs Fogg, we had to go on a walking tour of the Rookery! Which was so dull and boring you wouldn’t believe how dull it could be

When in Rome and all that crap. Decided to upgrade for the sheer hell of it and now we get to use the “lower first class lounge”, you know it’s not full first class cos you got crisps, tetley beer and tea on offer.

Oh but the Mrs found wine

Not sure who the weirdo “photo bomber” is in the background tho

Where the hell has this year gone? We were only just talking about going to the Harley 115th anniversary like a few days ago (well Feb actually) and suddenly it’s upon us.

In 2 days time we will mount the mighty steed and head off into the sunset.

Can’t wait.
