‘They ain't no use in me askin' you to change your mind an' hit the road with me?’ Joe asked hopelessly. (J. London, ‘Martin Eden’, ch. XVIII) — - Ты, конечно, со мной не пойдешь, не стоит и уговаривать? - спросил Джо с видом полной безнадежности.

Well, Joe, how do you feel about hitting the trail, and getting away from these darn soft summerites..? (S. Lewis, ‘Babbitt’, ch. XXV) — Ну как, Джо, хочется побродить подальше от этих дурацких дачников..?

Immediately he heard sounds of supper being prepared, he collected his feet and rose heavily on them with the intention of "hitting the trail". But he was easily persuaded to draw up to the table. (R. Greenwood, ‘Mr. Bunting at War’, ch. XI) — Заметив, что накрывают к ужину, он сейчас же извлек из-под кресла свои сапоги и, тяжело переступая ими, выразил намерение "смотаться". Но его быстро убедили подсесть к столу.

I'll tell you the truth . I got no heart for hitting the road again. (A. Saxton, ‘The Great Midland’, ‘The Third War’, ‘1912’) — По правде говоря... я не испытываю ни малейшего желания снова бродяжничать.
