Coming out of a long term marriage, which ended in divoce, "Roadside Ron" Healy decides to leave Chicago and fullfill his three life-long dreams; move to the California Coast, buy a Harley-Davidson and ride from one end of the country to the other. He packs up his belongings and heads west but never makes it to the coast. He stops about 90 miles shy of it to gas up and get a soda to escape the desert heat.
The owner of the gas station, a slow moving wise old man named John, talks him into staying for one night in order to repair a customer's carburetor. That one day turns into two years. As he's trying to resolve his marriage in his mind, he meets two women; Billy Jo, the daughter of a local horse rancher and Gloria whom he met on the Internet who lives in New York. He's mysteriously drawn to Gloria, even though he's never met her. He purchases the Harley and prepares to ride cross country, now more to settle his mind more than enjoy the trip. He decides to go to New York and meet Gloria, which further strains his relationship with Billy Jo.
On the way to New York he meets an intimidating looking biker named Maddog, who used to belong to a notorious motorcycle gang and they team up for part of the trip.
While on the road, Roadside realizes he's in love with Billy Jo and tries to get in touch with her to let her know, but she's nowhere to be found.
Now, more than anxious to return home, a series of events unfold before he arrives to find out the truth of Billy Jo's wherabouts.
