This is just plain good advice no matter where you are.

What I learned from this story is that people are people, and most want the same basic things out of life. It's a shame how much power corrupts people, because just as in that other article about the American with the Lybian troops, people are generally friendly towards their fellow man. They even like Americans, especially when they come to their countries and show interest.. They all desire the same out of life..

While protesters occupy Wall Street, women occupy his pants.

He overthrows dictators, just for the lulz.

Charities move their non-perishables from food banks to food credit unions because of him...

The 1st is one of the Resident Evil movies. The other 2 are from Priest.

If you are talking about the Panzercycle, thats from Mercenaries 2 (PS3, 360). Fun game. Like GTA in the middle of a war. If you ever wanted to climb up on a tank, kick the tank commander in the throat, rip a grenade off his vest, chuck in in the hatch, wait for the boom, and then hop into your brand new (well some interior staining) tank, then this is the game for you.

If you are talking about that lucky hunk of metal that is being straddled by Maggie Q, then the Movie is Priest
The even luckier bike that is basking the in glory of Milla Jovich is Resident Evil: Extinction

Vsync, While the priest bike would be a good one for a ride through Syira, in the 1st picture, I can only assume you ment I should ride Milla Jovich through Syria. (And damn, if I wouldn't). That would probably be the safest way to travel.

Badass longcoats, though they SEEM like a good character match for bikers, are not a good match for the bike and its rear wheel.

Will you please run for public office?

I like humans and I have traveled a "bit". If you can get individuals away from a crowd, you might find cool people are everywhere.


BUT! Traveling as the author was doing is very dangerous.
