‘Harlistas’ hit the road: female bikers tour Cuba on vintage Harley-Davidsons

Cuba is on the brink of a new era, but photographer Götz Göppert still manages to find a classic ride as he joins five female friends on a bike tour of the island

Saturday 4 June 2016 18.00 EDT

The vintage Harley-Davidsons were hired from Fernando Barreras Rodriguez, a middle-aged Spaniard who had his collection of bikes lined up in the suburban oceanside street in Havana where he lives – the oldest a pink Knucklehead from 1941, the youngest a red Panhead from 1950.

2. Oh, this is wierd, Mika! I looked the headline up in google, got this link:

http://www.theguardian.com/travel/gallery/2016/jun/04/harlistas-hit-the-road-female-bikers-tour-cuba-on-vintage-harley-davidsons

Then I posted it immediately below the one which doesn't work for me, either, now.

From what I can tell, the only difference is that they are alike in every way except for the fact the "d" in the last word is NOT capitalized, now, in the one which works, whereas the one I originally posted is capitalized, and doesn't work.

So odd!

Hope it's going to work for you.

Thanks for the alert.

3. Thanks. Great pictures.

Gotta be careful on those back roads. Not in the best shape. Nonetheless, a good place to cycle and motorbike.
