Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa

Boys and young men on bicycles hang onto a truck for a free ride in Cyangugu, a city in western Rwanda near the Democratic Republic of Congo border. They’re among the many people who travel from surrounding villages to bring goods to sell at Cyangugu’s markets. It’s common for the bicyclists to grab on to trucks when they get tired, but the practice often leads to accidents.
