I misunderstood the title. I thought "55 miles? Big deal, I hitched more than 4,000 km when I was younger than him".
But then I read the article and found out he rode on the outside of the vehicle. That's a bit extreme.
Where I'm from 'hitching a ride' means on the inside, riding on the outside is called 'suicide'.

I know, it's just an oddball story of a dumb kid, doing dumb things. He had to be freezing to death and hanging on for dear life.

BTW, nice to see your stuff again. I think I'm slowly moving away from that other place. It's only getting worse, but am straddling the line looking for sanity and a few adults - LOL. Anyway, always appreciated your historical stuff, that alone is a reason to think of changing horses. Take care.

Well, it's good to have you aboard.

looking for sanity

Sorry to disappoint you :)
