This is Steven Ward, ex-pro road racer and one of my good riding buddies from the past. This guy is a blast to hang out with unless its the final corner of a crit and then you'll get popped like a plastic bag. Steve put the bike down for a while and did a little globetrotting but it looks like when he got to Dacca, Bangladesh that old riding itch got the best of him. Obviously what happened here is he was getting a ride from the "rickshaw driver", (I didn't know they were called that but I got educated), and the dude wasn't going as fast as Steven is used to going so he told him, "Get in the back seat and let me show you how its done." The guy is smiling now but I wonder what he looked like when the ride was over. I bet the bike was in pieces. This is one of the coolest photos I have seen in a while. Love it! Its always good to see you Steve. Chao amigo.
