Seven guys, motorcycles, a camera and a blog. Whatever it is, and if you are riding with a Triumph or Yamaha between your legs, it’s better in the wind. Self-proclaimed “blue-collared intellectuals” have taken it upon themselves to ride down the coast of California, across the desert to follow paths the likes of Hunter S. Thompson and Capt. America have before. These pioneers hope to escape “a world that is unkind to change” on board vehicles with no windows to shelter them from the heat, cold, sun and deafening breeze.
Riders and artists – Drew, Samson, Greg, Brandon, Curtis, Colby, Scott. Why do they do it? “Because we read “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost, and were taught that art is a path chosen by those who will themselves into the unknown.” It’s as good a reason as any. Godspeed, Easy Riders. It’s Better in the Wind.
