The moment where we see Fonda and Hopper get on their motorcycles is where the definition of road trip is defined in this movie. A road trip is a very American idea in this movie, and in everything else we've read this semester; traveling the open road, and "finding America." Riding motorcycles on road trips seems to be a very American idea, and even the clothes Fonda wears and the bike he rides flaunts the stars and stripes.
Is it possible for the idea of a road trip to be un-American?
