Description
This is the final part of my 260 kilometer off-road ride through the Hindu Kush mountains in Afghanistan and late in the afternoon, as I pass a village, Taliban stops me. They tell me it's dangerous there and they will escort me. We barely make it 5 kilometers out of town before the chain of the motorcycle of the Taliban breaks. What follows next are some of the craziest events of all my travels.
