A couple of weeks ago as when some Peace Corps staff went through my town they dropped off this brand new Trek bike. At the time it was too snowy to try it out, but since then the weather has gotten much better and I have begun to venture out into the country side around my town.
Moroccan drivers are not the most respectful towards bikers so I stay off the paved road as much as possible. Luckily there is this terrific dirt road that leads from my town through surrounding farmland to rural duwars (Moroccan word for small villages). You can see the houses in the distance these are truly isolated and rural homes with no electricity or running water. On my way I passed some women collecting water and using a donkey to haul it up to their homes.
This is one for the Peace Corps brochure. (Not bad for a picture taken by a rock.)
All this untouched wilderness just begs for man to leave his mark.
Hope you take better care of it than your last bike. And I like how you prominently displayed the helmet in the first pic to get your sister off your track but it is nowhere to be found in any of the others. You know you didn't have it with you.
