wow! what a story!
but on a lighter note, and since i am debating whether to go electronic...
no way Kumar could have done his journey with electronic. just something to keep in mind for all for us when as we sit typing our life away and the desire to escape becomes insurmountable. but only if you do not have electronic.

i am going to keep my mech group! :banana:

"The bike is a natural conversation starter, and with no brakes or steering, the back seat is a good metaphor for the sense of powerlessness felt by victims of human traffickers."

Riding the tandem sounds less fun when you put it that way...

I wish more people thought this way - great story. I don’t regret that I am that guy that sits at a computer all day for my job, but I applaud those who put their thoughts into action.
