A popular sight that would always greet you whenever you're at Obikabia junction is the bike men in their numbers. They see every passersby as potential passengers, so they'd always call out, inviting them to board their motorcycles.
Some riders would even go as far as holding one's hand or carrying their luggage, as a way of encouraging - rather coercing them to board their motorcycles.
Sometimes, they get lucky and the passersby would agree to board. Other times, they'd run out of luck with passengers. This kind of situation can be frustrating but they're not discouraged. Before you can say, Jack, you'd see them approaching the next passersby to convince.
They rely on getting passengers to make a living, and when it doesn't work out, they might have to wait a while for the next opportunity. The enthusiasm and energy they often display as they call out to passersby are quite admirable.
As I walked through the junction one morning, I couldn't help but notice the familiar sight of bike men, their presence a staple of the location.
I was inspired to capture these bike men, thanks to the morning sun that casted a warm glow on the scene - shadows everywhere, lol. I guess you know what I did next. Hehehe.
