It is an honor and blessing to call this guy my big brother! It is his birthday today. We celebrated both of our April birthdays on Thursday, thanks to our wives. We spent the day driving BMW’s at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It is a day I doubt we will ever forget. He is still my mentor, encourager and the one who challenges me. And he still is a beast on the track. We both commented how blessed we were that day. @indianapolismotorspeedway @bmwperformancedrivingschools

This is going to be a great day! @bmwperformancedrivingschools @indianapolismotorspeedway

Topping off on our way to Indy! My brother Scott and I will be at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for a BMW Performance Driving School M experience day. We have not been on a race track together since 2001 when we attended a 3 day Skip Barber school. Tomorrow is going to be a fun day. #bmw #indy #ims

Sleeper BMW for one last drive. Driver is off to something better. Maybe he is going for comfort over 800 HP. #bmw #horsepower https://youtu.be/Hq2rZXtnVpQ?si=yi93sroas9grw4mJ

Linda and I made a trip this week to Lexington, Kentucky. The Kentucky High School Sweet 16 Basketball Tournament was being played at Rupp Arena. We drove down to celebrate meeting in the arena 45 years ago. We had a wonderful dinner at Cole’s on Main followed by some walking around downtown. We did grow up in the same town, but honestly, the first time Linda caught my eye was at the basketball tournament. I talk about it in a recent podcast which you can find on your favorite platform under Dan The Road Trip Guy. #roadtrip #loveatfirstsight #soulmate #ilovemywife

Recall the roar of engines and the scent of motor oil? That’s where you’ll find me, Dan the Road Trip Guy, and my long time friend, Bob Wood, as we swap tales of our automotive exploits. Bob’s story of purchasing his first car a Bugeye Sprite not only revs up the nostalgia but also fuels a conversation about the bonds formed under the hoods of our beloved machines and along the countless miles of open road. #gt40 @ford #roadtrip #friends #neighbors https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/d690a9b7-79a8-48b3-b7b5-c0b1597615f8/episodes/24d750c1-bdb0-48e1-8e3f-8d247e49fdc9/dan-the-road-trip-guy-racing-through-time-bob-wood's-automotive-adventures-and-the-gt40-legacy?ref=dm_sh_x11YvoLuEVid1sV3nCM2B3bE4

This cooler at work was a reminder of our mom this morning. For years, she was a mainstay at Anderson’s grocery. A business founded by my grandparents, later operated my uncle Earl and later by my cousin Conny. My mom was in the store from a young age until she retired. Under her watch, there was never standing around in the store. There was always a shelf to face up, that is what she called it. You would pull the stock to the front edge of the shelf with the label facing forward. And, if you finished that task, there was always a floor to sweep, or a window to wash. I miss mom! #smalltown #mom

Come along for a virtual road trip with Angela Savage. Angela is the daughter of Swede Savage. Swede was a motorcycle and auto racer in the 60’s and 70’s. Tragically he died after a horrific crash during the 1973 Indy 500. He is the last driver to die from a race day crash at the speedway.

Angela never met her dad, never shared a conversation or a hug because her mom was expectant with Angela during the 1973 race. Angela’s life has had its share of trauma and she shares some of that on this road trip and in the book Savage Angel. The book is not only about Swede’s racing. It is filled with stories about his family and the ups an downs particularly for Angela. I highly recommend you pick up a copy at https://saveage42.net.

Race fan or not, I believe you will find this episode interesting as well as encouraging. Angela challenges us with her question will you be a viewer or participant?

You can find Angela on social media and pick up a copy of the book at https://savage42.net

I invite you to connect with me at dantheroadtripguy.com. I will be giving away 2 copies of Savage Angel to two lucky winners. There is nothing to purchase, just connect with me on my website. #roadtrip #indy500 #swedesavage #racing https://open.spotify.com/episode/2YPqgqmI8ZV9BGpx2IOIqc?si=_gnxhXAxRW6wNSj8kNgqjw
