GEORGE TOWN: Steph Jeavons was ‘shaken up’ when she was stopped by several armed men when she was travelling in Kurdistan on her Honda CRD 250cc three months ago.

The men however, turned out to be friendly and after Jeavons explained her ‘mission’ to them, they guided her out of the hills to her next destination.
