Motorbiking in the rural areas... muddy..

Here is a short video of one of the days out in the field, getting consents from relatives of the children in the project. We had to take walking detours when the road was too muddy for us to pass. We rode three on a bike (the driver, my research assistant Lily and myself)... I'm technically not supposed to be taking motorbikes without helmets, but you won't find many helmets here and there is literally no other way to go unless you walk or take a push bike which would take hours and hours, or days even.... As you can see, the roads are so bad, we go very slowly. And there is little to no traffic in these areas ;-) only pedestrians, goats, cows and people riding bicycles.
