Motorcycle Travel: Prince Harry's A Bad, Bad Biker

Biker face? Prince Harry poses for a silly picture at the starting line for Enduro Africa 2008 in Port Elizabeth, South Africa on Friday.

The third-in-line to the throne and her older brother Prince William rode in the charity motorcycle rally earlier this month. Riders commit to an 8-day trek in southeastern South Africa to raise money for UNICEF as well as Harry's Lesotho-based nonprofit Sentebale. Eat your heart out, McGregor!

The British press delayed their reports of the princes' race until this week, probably over security concerns (the same ones that kept Harry's deployment to Afghanistan unreported for nearly 3 months). "Enduro" is the generic term for any kind of off-road motorcycle rally in which racers are scheduled to arrive at checkpoints at a certain time instead of trying to beat others there.
