I came across this website some time ago and was going through old bookmarks and was surprised to see I still had it.
This guy did a pretty nice job of trying to find some of the present day locations from the movie Easy Rider and photographing them from a similar angle as the one used in the movie.  He also did a fair amount of research on the movie and its background, and there's some really interesting stuff here.
It sure brought back memories for me and I know it will for you too!
Enjoy!

Thanks for the trip back in time. I remember watching Easy Rider when it was first released and thought what a cool ride to do on a bike. Of course I was 21, married and had 1 daughter. Needless to say the ride didn't happen back then for me. Who knows maybe next year. Then maybe not.
