I never have that problem, as my little bride keeps talking & asking questions or telling me what to do so I don't have time to think about it. As we all know our wives are the original GPS system. (And don't you forget it)
Just sitting here contemplating my next ride out of town.
Going to visit my daughter (one of 6) and her family, out of town about 130 miles.
Seems like every trip, though, whether approaching destination or heading home, the last 10 miles or so seem to take forever. I've noticed it even on very long trips when looking for a rest stop or hotel for the evening.
Most of my rides fly by, lots to see, different smells in the air, traffic to watch out for. Then time slows down. (Wish I could bottle some of that.) Oh, well, just an old man noticing life's oddities.

Bob,
It has to do with anticipation and wanting to be somewhere. It never seems to take as long to come back from somewhere as it does to go the first time.
Another example would be day to day life. On the average day, time moves along quickly but just let the wife say I'm going to get lucky tonight and the day must be 500 hours long.
That about covers it

They will never miss a sale but that next exit is a sure loser.
You need to come to western Kansas
The WHOLE dang trip is LONG...................
Esp if you are riding on I-70
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
How about across the bottom of Texas? It's like a day and a half and still in Texas.

I think that last 10 seems long because you are trying to make it home or to your destination without having to make another stop and your bladder is about to burst if you don't get there soon.
Sounds like a smart girl to me and she made you think it was all a mistake to boot?
Maybe we should all follow her and call in to work for a few extra days riding time?
Technology isn't all its cracked up to be if I could break a GPS in such a fashion to work the same way I would be a happy boy!

the difference between a good trike and a bad one depends entirely on the integrity of it's builder!
I asked how far to the next exit. She replied "about an inch"
Oh so right Roadking! And why can't we get em to understand north, south, east and west, instead of left and right??? I keep tellin my OL I can't see which direction you are facing in your mind, but north and south are always the same!!! Why don'y they get it???

Beware of liberals posing as Americans.
LOl ... At least they will look at the map, even get directions ... Most men ... Not so much ... If it wasn't for the gps, I'd be lost all the time
