Journeys after Caesar's last date in Rome? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rides

'journeys' is the definition.
(I know this)

'after caesar's last date in rome?' is the wordplay.
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'last' suggests the final letters.
'date in rome?' becomes 'ides' (Roman calendar term, as in the Ides of March).
The last letter of 'caesar' is 'r'.
'r'+'ides' is 'RIDES'.

(Other definitions for rides that I've seen before include "is carried" , "Travels on, horse say" , "Journeys by horse or bicycle" , "Dries up and travels" , "Comes through" .)
