According to Davida themselves, their own creations are very much inspired by the same notions of freedom that Easy Rider so resonantly expressed and of course they are very proud that Peter chose to wear one of their helmet for this anniversary celebration of one of the most important films not just for motorcycling but for so much else besides.
