Ojek-ing in Jakarta

This is Jakarta traffic on a normal day.
Brittany and I were in Jakarta to meet some friends.  We wanted to get somewhere fast so we took Ojeks.  You cannot tell from the picture but there is always a lot of traffic in Jakarta.  An Ojek is when you hop on the back of a random man's motorbike and he takes you down random side streets to get to your destination.  Then you pay him.  It is like taking a taxi but much faster.  As we were taking pictures in the middle of the road a man in a truck also wanted his picture taken.  I ran along side him to get the perfect shot.
