Good stuff Geno. Wish we were able to travel to Cuba. Between the cigars, cars and fly fishing I'd never come home.

Really enjoyed your slide show, great advert for travelling to Cuba. The selection of pics was spot on and good choice of a mix of b&w with colour. I just need to take my Harley Chopper with me and I'd be in heaven.

Not many Harleys there, I think parts would be a major problem.

Lots of others though, mostly Russian, Chinese & North Korean

Some are in better shape than others.

There even seems to be some sense of safety too. For the life of me I don't know how he got this helmet on!

Not for the kids, though. Poor quality but one parent has a hard helmet, the other a bicycle helmet and the kid none. It's ok though 'cuz the kid's in the middle.

This one didn't run, he just pushed it.

Speed isn't an issue though, here's a cop bike

As much as my photos romanticize Cuba, I can't say many good things about it from a tourist/humanitarian perspective. As a street photographer, that's a whole other story. :)

I'm under no illusions how life was/is for native Cubans, I like the idea spending an extended period of time there though.

You can. You just can't fly direct or let your government know you were there. :)
