Kathmandu Traffic
Kathmandu Traffic
Decided to hire a mountain bike for the afternoon and go for a ride to Bhaktapur, a little out of the city.
Traffic in Kathmandu is 'interesting' to bike in. The hectic mess, is a bit more like taking your life into your hands on two wheels, you point the bike where you want to go and hope no one hits you from the side (or back).

Departing from the centre of Kathmandu, I was right into the worst of the crazy traffic, thrown in the deep end. Once had biking out of Kathmandu itself it was a bit easier to deal with.
Bhaktapur was quiet and relaxing after the hour bike ride. Coming back into Kathmandu, at least I was now more ready for the traffic.
