Easy Rider - Smith - The Weight


Looking back this movie was a far greater influence on me than I had imagined.Later on I also became an incredible fan and admirer of the late Dennis Hopper and his circle of friends.
 It may not seem such a fantastic thing in this day of instant communication and easy media access ,but in 1969 at the age of 13 this movie (watched at a Drive In Theater) was the my saving grace,and a hope for escape in the future.Two years later I owned  my first chopper to be a 1959 XLH Sportster purchased for $500.00. and Yes It was road worthy..:)
