Henry Cole embarks on the trip of a lifetime, following the legendary Route 66 across the USA. This
famous highway, originally stretching almost from coast to coast (Chicago to LA), has not only been
immortalised in song, but is also a powerful iconic symbol of American freedom and the 'road trip'
concept. To travel its length represents an adventure through the diverse history and culture of the
USA's heartland - from the bustling streets of the 'Windy City', via the vast, open spaces and
dramatic landscapes of the old West. Along the way Henry takes in the stunning Grand Canyon, the
glitz of Las Vegas, laid-back 'La-La Land' home of Hollywood and Beverly Hills stamping ground of
the super rich. Join us for an inspirational journey in search of the American Dream.

5. Rain, Rain Go Away
It's not fun in torrential rain - the road turns to mud and on a Harley it becomes too dangerous to
ride on. Henry decides to revert to the interstate and press on through the panhandle of Texas and
into New Mexico trying to beat the thunderstorms. The rain and frustration make for a few very bad
tempered days!! Finally Henry arrives in Gallup on the borders of Texas and Arizona drenched but
elated because it seems he has beaten the rain!

....so Billy Connoly does this theme, and you just have to try and top it ?

Having been in most of the places seen on these shows, I gotta say
" go there in the RIGHT season ". Much of it is prone to washouts in the rainy months.
Too much to see to cover in twenty episodes, never mind just seven.
