I feel these guys deserve their own spot.

I think this is a great picture.

God speed Wan and Baul.

==================================

"I saw a bicycle traveler who going to Death Valley alone."

"I rode the same speed as his for a while. and talked each other.
He is Baul from Holland. He travel whole world by his bicycle.
I was hungry so I wanted to have a lunch together.
but he already ate. He wanted my help to go over uphill.
so I tied a strap behind my yellow back and towed his bicycle."

"I towed his bicycle on unpaved uphill road about 10miles. on 15mph
and said good bye. Good luck Baul!"

THAT IS REALLY COOL!

I guess this answers the question posted in "Do bicycles and scooters mix?"

Glad to see Wan getting his props....what he did on a 50cc scoot is unbelievable. It has been an amazing story to follow.

So amazing! Has anybody actually ridden a Ruckus? Talk about gutless! I did a test ride a couple weeks ago and thought I was going to have to get out and push. He's a brave soul.

Oh my god, so true. Almost think that his pulling the cyclist up the hill might have been the other way ... maybe it was lost in translation.

Either way sounds like a trip of a life time.

Got to page 35 and jammed again. His story brings tears to my eyes of how wonderful his journey has been.

What an awesome adventure. And I'm still on part 1 and it's got 108 pages!

I have one and dont have any problems hitting 43 in town...thats the only place i ride it so it dosent need to go any faster. If I wanted more speed then i would have just gotton a motorcycle.
