Trois Américains (youguysarestupid.com) ont décidé de traverser à pieds les Etats-Unis, de Chicago à San Francisco, reprenant la route de Dean Moriarty(Neil Cassady) et Sal Paradise(Jack Kerouac). Tu laisserais bien tout tomber pour aller marcher avec eux, sentir "ce pays brut rouler en bloc son étonnante panse géante jusqu'à la Côte Ouest et toute cette route qui y va, tous ces gens qui rêvent dans son immensité...". L'occasion en tout de cas de lire ou de relire pour la xième fois Sur la route.
"It was my dream that screwed up, the stupid hearthside idea that it would be wonderful to follow one great red line across America instead of trying various roads and routes.
[...]... I could feel the road some twenty inches beneath me, unfurling and flying and hissing at incredible speeds across the groaning continent with that mad Ahab at the wheel. When I closed my eyes all I could see was the road unwinding into me. When I opened them I saw flashing shadows of trees vibrating on the floor of the car. There was no escaping it. I resigned myself to all." Jack Kerouac : On the road
