This is the real start of the Kalahari Rally in South Africa! We have to leave early morning and start riding in the dark still. Things don't exactly go to plan this stage though!!

I have 54 years experience riding bikes from 50cc to 950cc about 50% street and 50% dirt. With all that I may or not be a good rider (I just get on and ride), however I've been around long enough to know a good rider when I see one. I'm speaking about you Noraly. The best part I like in this video is when Noraly turns to one of the other riders and says "This is fun, isn't it?" This ride is kicking every ones rear end and Noraly says: "This is fun isn't it?" Love, Love, Love this episode. Smiling again.

If Noraly stays on Savanah we need to get her a bigger tank. I am in for my piece. I cannot believe that Honda has not chimed in here much less give her some tech support along the way. This one video series will sell a 1000 CRF300L's and maybe some Rally models also. Noraly deserves a better rear shock, full blown front forks, not the wimpy one spring only stock set up, the best crash bars/skid pan, a lower front brake line, a higher stabilized GPS mount, and as mentioned above, one of the many larger tanks available for the 250L. Go Noraly and Savanah!!! Bob in Nevada

There are two types of people in this world when it comes to motorcycles: those that "get it", and those that don't, and never will, and you can't explain it to them. Noraly "GETS IT"!! She is an excellent rider, fearless, knows and trusts the Garmin, does NOT get distracted, fearless, knows her machine, what it will do and what it won't, fearless, and is in RACE MODE. Did I mention FEARLESS. I get so caught up in the vids, squirming around in my chair just watching her taking the blind turns and branches in the face. WHAT A GAS!! Been looking forward to this ALL DAY!! THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!! I say she finishes in the top 5.

Yep, I caught that little bit of misogyny, too. Disappointing. Noraly has a particular sense for handling a motorcycle that you just can't learn. This is most evident when she lets the bike have its head in deep sand at high speed. She relaxes, modulating the wiggle with the throttle, never letting it do a tank slapper. SO GOOD.

You don't normally ride like this - fast, racing type riding where you know there is assistance should you need it - but just be aware, even very experienced and skilled riders like yourself, and many of the others, can become over-confident and complacent - it is a known issue, so just take it easy sometimes. No-one wants to see you hurt and out of the rally. Take care, but carry on enjoying.

Because at the end of every episode, especially in this awesome Rally, you have such a fulfilled look on your face that it shows your sense of happiness is continuously being achieved, and at the end of each of those days, you HAVE found your destination! And all of us viewers have too! It’s been said, “When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor, it’s to enjoy each step along the way”. Noraly, I do think you, Savannah and us are enjoying this dance quite nicely…! Splendid.

This is one of the best experience of racing videos I have ever seen. Miss the drone work, but even you can't do everything ( or have I spoken too soon.

Staying at the Van der Valk Hotel. We went to Kerkendijk and experienced poffertjes for the first time, really tasty treat. The man at the windmill shop had a stand and was selling them. They could become addictive, but loved them. Hopefully tomorrow we will find entertaining things to do while in Utrecht. You motivate us to travel together and see the world. Super awesome trip, Friday is on to Amsterdam. Have fun and ride hard, very proud of what you are able to accomplish.Getting closer and closer to the million subscribers.

Looks like a fun ride. You are probably done with the rally by now. But one piece of equipment that saved my life several times when I raced the desert was a steering stabilizer. It’s kind of expensive but a heck of a lot cheaper than broken bones.

She's not getting 3rd/4th, she's riding in a non competitive 'adventure' category, it's a class that just rides along formed roads and tracks in the same direction as the actual rally, she's not riding on the actual rally special stage race tracks.

@@rafaucett I know, i heard her, she's misleading viewers, she's participating in the 'adventure moto' category (hence the A preceding her number), look up the kalahari web page, it's a non competitive category run by "rally rampage" where riders use roads and tracks to follow the route of the racers without having to follow the race track, in other words they use the " transport" sections that join up the special test sections. They don't follow the full race track and there is no placing or winners and losers, they're just out there having fun. They have the same thing for many rallys around the world including the finke race in Australia.

"Comin in HOT" is the new theme of Itchy Boots! :-) Those blind corners or chicanes in the bush are the parts that scare me the most. You never know how sharp they are and run the risk of carrying too much speed. At least for an amateur like me. All the kudos you're getting from your fellow riders are ON POINT! You deserve it!

I suspect the Noraly/Savana combo is ~50kg lighter than those big bore/burly men KTM Honda Africa BMWGS types, so you don't dig into the ruts as much as the "faster" bikes do. And everybody knows it's more fun to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow.

Way to go Norally I was taught to never ride faster than your ability only use 85% of your bikes power and the terrain you are most comfortable in go for it. You are getting a lot of compliments and deservedly too, I can say honestly all your prior travels those courses you took are shining through, I hope they have come up with a trophy for you, you are on a bike under powered compared to the rest, never done anything like this, and not wanting to sound sexist a slip of a female, go team Itchy Boots.

Now I'm watching a bike flying along at crazy speeds on roads I would be quietly trickling along...oh yeah, while chatting to us. I think back to seeing Noraly riding single-handed on a dirt road while holding a camera stick and being really impressed. Noraly is a great, geat rider, and an adventurer par excellence. And looky here...she's not stuffing around here. Competitive streak!! Love and thoughts from NZ. Take care and ride safe all. Especially you Noraly. This is brilliant watching.
