Bikelihood

Vietnam Zoom series Vietnam is a country of legends and myths with a 4,000-year history of interaction with the world s great cultures. Come to Vietnam and take a good look at every corner of life and people, and you will find yourself in the midst of unprecedented wonders. The Vietnam Zoom series will open the door for you to explore Vietnam in the most real and lively way possible.

The motorbike is one of the most common sights in the Vietnamese life. The country has over 20 million bikes, which present themselves together with their owners - poor laborers, small traders - everywhere, from the most rural corner to the largest cities, from the coast to the remote mountain roads. No other means of transportation has proven more flexible, suitable for the livelihood journey than the motorbike.

The bike carries on its back a small world. People burden it with everything and anything they can, and try to ride it as fast as they can. The bike s technical limitations don t matter. Neither do traffic laws. Driven by a natural and irreversible mission, people "bike" their living, knowing that their loved ones are waiting for the bacon to come home.

Using a motorbike in Vietnam has become an art - the art of loading, driving, and how to map the safest and quickest way to the destination - without breaking the traffic rules and all will be shown in 130 full-color photographs of the photobook
