Highlights of the Road
Motorcyclists sometimes suffer injuries taking considerable rehabilition. In many cases, for various reasons, riders appear "outside" of recognised community facilities.
However, motorcycling is a celebration of Life itself and riders are addressing this.

Highlights of the Road
Rainy road, Macedonia, Yugoslavia,
"We had stopped for a rest and were engaged in a futile attempt to light a fire, when a shouting aproned and head-scarfed woman dashed up the cliff towards us. We could not have understood what she was saying even if her words were not blowing ragged on the wind. Perhaps she had seen us blowing along the road and had come up to rescue us?"
