In this photo taken Friday, June 5, 2015, Behnaz Shafiei rides her motocross bike during her training session while fans watch riders at a racetrack near the village of Baraghan, some 19 miles (30 kilometers) west of the capital Tehran, Iran. On a recent weekend, she drew a crowd when she took off her helmet, part of a lot of gear from her international sponsors. Women crowded around Shafiei to take snapshots with her.
