Motorcycling snappers

On a lighter topic: It struck me recently that I know more news agency, newspaper and freelance photographers in South Africa and the rest of the continent who ride motorcycles than who don’t…..:)

Some use them only to beat traffic and make work easier(carrying all their gear on the bike), but most are ‘bikers’ and ride every day of their lives as a passionate, soulful extension of themselves.

Are there any other biking photographers out there?

Ps send picture of bike.(Only joking!)

Happy riding and good light.
