IRAN-BIKER-WOMEN

Iranian superbike and motocross rider Behnaz Shafiei poses next to her bike during a training session at the Azadi Stadium, Tehran's main sports complex, on December 14, 2015. Shafiei, 26, who holds a bachelor degree of accounting, used to work as an accountant for a company for some years but decided to leave that behind and focus on her racing. Behnaz faced numerous difficulties in order to become a woman biker, especially in Iran where women are not allowed to ride motorbikes in the streets, and now she encourges other women to become bikers and prove that their place in the country's culture is not just at home.
