The bicycle taxis of Burundi are a marvel of balance, strength, and terrifying courage. The riders carry passengers, sacks of potatoes, mattresses, and sometimes entire families down steep hills at speeds that make you pray out loud. The skill required to navigate Burundi's hills on two wheels with a load that would break a small truck is something only a Burundian bicyclette driver truly understands.
