Description
In Burundi, East Africa, cyclists known locally as "ikinga" riders climb mountain roads at dawn to buy bananas, firewood, and charcoal at the market — then race back down hill-paved deadliest roads at terrifying speed to sell it all before the day is out. Some complete five to seven round trips before nightfall. A single mistake means a fatal fall. They do it anyway.
