   Anything with wheels

   Public transport in Guinea, West Africa consists almost entirely of "bush taxis" -- decrepit Peugeots abandoned decades ago by Europeans, driven across the Sahara and patched together with electrical tape and sheer determination. Uncomfortable would be an understatement and you never know when - or if - you'll arrive, but you can't help but bond with your fellow passengers and learn to laugh at all the absurd adventures of the road.
   It once took me 31 hours to cover 200 kilometers between Guinea and Mali.

   Team Transportation

   The team leaves after a long day of racing. They seemed quite happy riding in the 'team bus'...or maybe they were just happy to be done with a long day on the river!
