Harassment, Threats Don't Slow Down Afghan Women's Cycling Team

In post-Taliban Afghanistan, women athletes still....

face frequent criticism and even violence from men who consider 
their behavior to be un-Islamic. 
The women of the National Cycling Team must deal with harassment 
and insults wherever they ride. 
But that hasn't deterred them from training hard, competing abroad, 
and encouraging other young women to exercise their hard-won freedoms.
