Motorcycle special forces from Taiwan.

Soldiers from Taiwan's elite special forces ride motorcycles from a helicopter during a drill in southern Tainan county March 8, 2007. Taiwan's elite special forces would likely find themselves at the front lines if war were to break out between Taiwan and China, which considers the democratically ruled island a wayward province since its split from the mainland at the end of a civil war in 1949. Training and motivation are essential as Taiwan's army of 130,000 ground troops is outnumbered more than 10-to-one by China's People's Liberation Army. Picture taken on March 8, 2007.
