A whiskey-fueled writing assignment takes one man on an epic motorcycle road trip through the bars and taverns across the American West.  Riding a 1960 BMW R60/2 motorcycle with a sidecar, Sanders (Andrew Rizzo) is a down-on-his-luck writer on a mission to chronicle every watering hole along the way.  With help of fellow traveler and dharma bum, Northway (David Ackroyd) and a variety of other colorful characters along the way, Sanders learns the way of the road and the zen of the bar.
 
Motorcycling the West, sleeping on the ground, chasing mermaids, and drinking in America’s most legendary taverns, Sanders experiences firsthand the brotherhood of the bike and bar.  Along the way, he gets advice from Ernest Hemingway and Jim Harrison on writing, drinking, and living life to the fullest.  The Best Bar in America is a classic road movie for the modern age.
