I found a brewery with the touring pals I rode with. I'm kidding, the brewery was plan A for dinner!
You could try writing and curating a log of the journey. I know sifting through photos for the cream of the crop takes time. You don't even have to share it. Our day to day concerns and trials are so miniscule over the arc of our lives, that taking time to look at them months or years later can show them to be almost comical.
"Saw another guy on tour today. I waved but he didn't wave back. What a jerk. On another note, Going-to-the-Sun Road was fun, but long climb..."
