Indonesia Are they rule-breakers or are they free? Freedom for these riders comes in an unlikely form, the Vespa. Equipped with only their imagination, everything from plastic bottles to tree stumps is fair game to customize their vehicles, transforming them into the gnarliest rides with enough character to put motorbikes to shame. In Indonesia, these vehicles mean more than just freedom of expression – for these riders, this is about liberation of the soul. Their families and communities don't get it, so they become outcasts and rebels. But that doesn't matter anymore; they've created inner circles with a bond and passion so deep, they feel like family. And they welcome the side-eyes: to these riders, strange looks and attention feel like being famous.
