Jumping Jet ...

Posted by dailyphotosofmaale (Maalé, Maldives) on 13 March 2008 in Transportation.

dirt bikes .... popular among locals as jumping jets ...
until all the city roads were paved ... dirts bikes like these were the most favorite mode of transport in the city ...
boys would prefer these kinds bikes to scooters as these bikes are easier maneuver on the gravel roads ... went through puddles much faster and were safer to ride on muddy streets ...
now ... with all roads paved ... these bikes are not seen on the roads often ...
