Cyclist: Kelly Kontsenyane, Botswana
While my friend David was in Botswana last year, he began taking pictures of the everyday cyclists he met while riding around Gabarone, and asking them a few questions. I’m pleased he’s sharing the images with Bikejuju, and I’ll be doling them out in the coming weeks.
Kelly Kontsenyane:
I ride for 30 minutes to get here to work. I ride my bicycle for exercise. It is not dangerous to ride here because I go away from the road. I get fresh after riding, not tired. I get strong. I have the power, so I do not get weary or tiredness. I feel energetical after riding. Even if I am in work, I can still patrol. On Sunday in the morning when I don’t work, I will ride on my Humber to the border of South Africa with my little brother for exercise. I have used my bike for a life time. I paid 400 pula for it.
not a bad bike for ~$60. I wish everyone in Seattle had buddy flaps like Kelly’s.
Nice testimony! =)
I liked that bike, very like brazilian bikes.
Nice mudGuard too!
Regards from Brazil…
