Question : What would you do if your car broke down in the desert and you're miles from civilization?

Well, most people would be hard-pressed at the mercy of the elements and Mother Nature; but Emile Leray had other plans. This gutsy Frenchman was on his way somewhere in the northwest Africa when he was stopped and advised to turn around as the region was ground for some military action. After deciding to take a bigger drive to go around the desert, Leray found himself stranded in the middle of the desert with a broken rear suspension.

According to Leray, in this unprepared circumstances, he had no choice but to think outside the box. The resultant was axing his vehicle and building a motorcycle from its parts. In this feat, the Frenchman managed to drill holes by bending metal and sawing at it, then unbending it to be flat again.

Here's to his ingenuity. Cheers.
