Been there? Done it? Or just thinking about doing it? Either way, you might want to spend a few precious moments considering this here Route 66 T-shirt from Sump. We've travelled Route 66 twice, and it was one of the greatest experiences of our miserable lives. But it took us a long time to get it together to make the first trek, and it took another 20 years to get it together to make the second.  And that's way too long.

Of course, it might have helped if we'd had one (or more) of these cool Route 66 T-shirts to remind us that life is short and the clock is ticking (and it ticks a lot faster on the downward leg). So we devised this tee, and we're offering it here for £14.99 plus postage and packing. It's 100% pre-shrunk cotton. It's silk-screened. And it's available in the following sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL.

When you buy one, you'll need to tell everyone around you that you plan to travel Route 66 someday and therefore need constant reminders to get out there and actually do it. So you're looking for a suitable phrase from your wife, husband, friends or family, such as: "So when are you going, then?" That should help you stay focussed.

In America they call it "The Mother Road". Or "Main Street". Or "The Will Rogers Memorial Highway". Route 66 is steeped in history. It's cool. It's kitch. It's tiring. It's exhilarating. It historic. It's of the moment. It's everything you expect it to be, and it's best enjoyed before you die.

Buy the tee or don't buy. But DO make the trip. Route 66 is unforgettable (well, until dementia gets a grip).
