Easy Rider
Wyatt and Billy are bike riders. They ride away from LA into all parts of other places in America. "...their bikes are a part of the two riders, but also how the bikes symbolize something different and threatening for mainstream America". We know this because when Billy, Wyatt, and their guest (lawyer) goes into a restaurant..all girls like them. however, the guys don't like them. The group is looked upon as a threat to the society. And the lawyer also explains this to them in one scene. America is what Billy and Wyatt represents. They don't care what others think about them. They are different from the rest. They don't follow laws- they ride without license. They make their own rules. Live on their own terms,etc. Basically, they are what true freedom represents and what true America- the land of freedom-should represent. Therefore, they are looking for America that truly represents the land of freedom and not the look-alike of freedom.
