Riding Towards Shadows is a personal journey that explores love, loss, and redemption. As I entered my forties, I began to question my identity and the direction of my life. Despite a successful journalism career, I felt an emptiness tied to a twenty-year-old unresolved issue: the death of the man I loved in a motorcycle accident in the early 1990s in Glasgow. I never expressed my love for him, and the pain lingered. It was time to honor his memory and confront my past. This marked the start of my journey. For road movie enthusiasts, the vehicle is crucial, and as a lifelong biker, I decided to embrace the adventure fully. I purchased a Harley-Davidson and rode a thousand miles north toward my past, uncertain of what I would discover—perhaps peace and awareness. My quest for inner freedom, my approach to grief, and my determination to navigate a world filled with sexism and stereotypes may resonate with others and inspire them. This narrative also appeals to fans of road movies, motorcycles, and the easy rider myth. It’s my story, filled with lessons learned along the way. I hope it inspires you, as everything is true to my recollections.
