I've always wanted to try it as a social experiment moreso than a way to get away from it all. Unfortunately trains are more or less a thing of the past and trying to hitchhike in todays world is just asking for trouble. I can see it now, a young black male trying to explain to a police officer that he's just "hitchhiking for fun", something tells me I'd see the back see of a cruiser faster than I'd get get to the next town. If you try it & ever swing through central Ohio though I'll be sure to give you a ride.
