The Smiling Faces of India

Quick stop for some supplies, turned into another party!

Cycling in India is wonderful.  I might be biking by myself, but I am never alone.  Locals will pull up beside me and 80% of the day there is a motorbike or bicycle riding with me.  This can be a little dangerous as there is always traffic coming, but they insist on riding side by side.  At times I've had up to 5 bikes with me. 

They are so curious here, always asking questions, wanting to know where I'm going, where I'm from.  They will bike with me for many KMs, waving to their friends, making small talk.  It's a lot of fun!
