Hi Howard!

Great shots!  Though I've not been to Bali, they bring back memories 
of Malaysia and Thailand.

I was, however, disappointed that you only captured 4 of a 
bike.  Somewhere I've got a shot of 6 on a bike, but we've seen 7!

Given what some folks do to these little machines, it is a real 
credit to their designers that they hold up, at all!

Thanks for sharing ... and for the memories!

Cheers!
