Expect to get going again after end of trip (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

presume

'expect' is the definition.
(I know that presume is a type of expect)

'get going again after end of trip' is the wordplay.
'get going again' becomes 'resume'.
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'end of' indicates one should take the final letters.
The final letter of 'trip' is 'p'.
'resume' put after 'p' is 'PRESUME'.

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for presume that I've seen before include "Suppose without proof" , "Take to be the case" , "Supreme (anag)" , "Take for granted" , "Believe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
