Flashback II

5/11/2007 9:37:00 AM

A warm August night in 1986. Driving my bicycle somewhere between Jönköping and Göteborg in West Sweden, looking for a camping site. Listening to the radio on my Walkman.

Suddenly, on a wide open stretch, a westerly wind starts to push me gently and I go faster and faster.

And then, as if somebody's watching, "Driving Away from Home" by It's Immaterial starts to play on my Walkman:

"Driving away from home
Thirty miles or more
And we'll go moving away from home
Without a care in the world".
