I want to ride my bicycle.
I want to ride it where I like.

Over the course of our travels in Asia, North Africa, the Middle East and Europe, I have come across bikes in all sorts of environments.

Being relatively cheap to buy, easy to maintain and requiring no fuel, except the rider’s sweat, they are the the world’s most popular mode of transport.

These bikes aren’t owned by lycra wearing, latte drinking, road racing followers of the Tour de France, but simple people who need their bikes for everyday living.

There are over a billion bikes in the world – here are a few of them.
