For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.
Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Read the whole post and you'll understand I was comparing this to another story of a couple hiking through Iran like 10 years ago and got arrested. Or how about that stupid kid that stole the poster in NK and came home in a coma to die? My post even starts out saying "why do people keep doing this"? It's pretty fucking obvious I was giving another example, or maybe your reading comprehension could use work?
Yeah, now that you edited your post and clarified it, suddenly it's obvious
Maybe not bitch about reading comprehension if you post facto change your writing
Reading the whole post it would have been clear. This guy was arrested in Russia, not Iran. Between white as snow, and hiking, and Iran, you should've known that I wasn't referring to this guy cycling in Russia.
