On the ride back home, Lena mildly regretted her decision to not take up her father's advice to ask Clive to drop her off at Samuel's house and then stay at a nearby hotel so that he could take her back home when she was ready to go back home. She was feeling rather tired and still had four more hours of driving left. At least being on her motorcycle meant that she could rely on the differing temperatures and wind to a certain degree to help her stay awake. The only annoying part would be driving after dark when others on the road in cars were not always so considerate towards those who were on motorcycles.
