And as a slight tangent... how they ride bikes in Morocco is quite something to see. Top tubes and pannier racks are passenger seats. Panniers racks piled high with awkward bulky items. Women in full-on black burkas, cycling in the mid-day heat of the sub-Sahara. I even saw one guy on a bike, going downhill in the High Atlas mountains, slowing himself down by manually squeezing his front brakes together with one hand (I guess he didn't have brake levers).
