They can walk, can't they?

A man from Nigeria (long story) stayed with my family. He saw our washer and dryer, which by our standards were pretty worn out. He had this to say:

"If I had a washer and dryer like you do in Nigeria, I could run a business."

I'm amazed that the folks in the pictures are able to ride on roads without reading special books and/or taking special classes.

It's a miracle!
Not really. All they need is a bicycle. Are you going to donate?

I've donated to WBR!

I also have written a couple of articles to help promote the organization.

So what is so different about them, compared to the folks that need instruction in order to turn cranks on the road?

Sorry, my donations are pledged to other groups already.
Maybe far fewer motorist! Now let the thread get back on topic.
