In 1973, they rode 350 Yamahas from Nebraska to California and back. Along the way, they stopped to see friends and family. But this 1974 ride to Boston was different. Now, on the verge of adulthood, they grappled with school, work, and their futures—especially young love. Their long ride to historic Boston was fueled by romance and expectations of a happy future. The descriptive text in this book contains a glimpse at mid-70’s America, but it also assesses numerous coming-of-age moments for young adults. Their ride to Boston became a rite of passage they have never forgotten.
