Split-The Early Years

Motorcycle adventure: First true love 'on the road': LSD trips: Born in 1951, I have the priviledged title of 'Baby Boomer. I came from a large family that lived in the 'burbs. It was in this setting that I became uneasy around people. I found inner peace by being alone. I discovered during a classroom 'bomb drill' or watching films of the atomic bomb or maybe while the older kids were being drafted, that everyone has a dream but very few live to see that dream come true. As a troubled teenager, I decided t live my dream while I was still able. In the spring of 1970, I saddled up a 650 Thunderbolt motorcycle and with four other riders, we split the scene. Staged in the psychedelic era, "Split- The Early Years" chronicles the events of a careless life on the road.
