At the same time, I’ll be baby steps to ensure that someday women can!Do you ever think about giving up?Nope. Never. There are certainly days where I’m overwhelmed by the enormity of what I’ve bitten off. But then I realize that around the A Lange & Sohne Lange 1 Men's watch corner is the possibility of hiring staff here, building an Afghan team, and sharing the load, and I have to keep plugging away. Its tantalizingly close!What were the trails like over there?A crisscross of goat trails and occasional walking paths.

Niner SS, or Niner gears?No gears...haven’t ridden a geared bike, mountain or road, in four years and don’t intend to start there. But I am taking a couple different cogs, as the road through the first part of the province is slowly getting paved and is rolling. The real issue is land mines, which still cover much of the country. No bikes shops, right? What A Lange & Sohne Men's watch if something goes wrong?You’ve got to be able to fix most things yourself. Afghanis are incredibly resourceful, but a 29’er wheels and tubes, disc breaks, and front shocks are all irreplaceable. I got a crash course in taking apart and rebuilding my bike, and it made me even more thankful I ride a singlespeed.
