Easy Rider Revisited

LONDON, July 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

In 1968 partners in crime Captain America and Billy sat astride their stars and stripes endowed Harley Davidsons and set out across the Arizona desert. Now over 45 years on, Business Destinations journalist Rita Lobo has set upon the similarly ambitious task of documenting the infamous journey of Easy Rider.

Each of Rita's weekly instalments will track the same journey that inspired an entire generation of self-proclaimed free spirits. Adorning a leather jacket and shades - metaphorically speaking - Rita will traverse everything from the "liberal western coast to the Deep South, through national parks, Native American reservations and remnants of rural living."

Journeying to places so remote as to remain untouched by Google Maps, Rita will not only revisit the famous film landmarks, but also reveal the many changes to have befallen the near sacred route since filming wrapped.  

To relive the route from LA to New Orleans join Rita every Friday for an unparalleled insight into modern day America.

Rita's initial 400 miles spans LA to Arizona and delves into "a patch of land forgotten in time." This first instalment is available to read online now at Business Destinations.
