It follows the tale of two dope-dealing bikers, Wyatt aka "Captain America" (Fonda) and Billy (Hopper), who decide to take their bikes across the country. They have no aim other than going to Mardi Gras in UsefulNotes/NewOrleans, and pure freedom, which is not appreciated by the locals they encounter. Only one man, liberal lawyer George Hanson (Nicholson), shares their sense of freedom. As they ride along, they wonder what ever happened to America.

* {{Novelization}}: There was an "Original Screenplay" book that was published after the film came out. It is not only not the original screenplay, but it is not even a script at all. It is a "novelization" of the final film as it plays out on screen and formatted to look like a script. It was a cheap, exploitation publication designed to capitalize on the film's success and attributed to the original screenwriters on the cover.
