It is true. After watching Noraly's videos I was so insipred that I now want to see all of these places myself. I am in full scale planning and research for my Africa tour.

I agree 100% ...I had no Idea ...today's rural Africa was so friendly, welcoming, and very nice accommodation! (my Godmother's family was from "colonial Rhodesia"& the political ousting of the white landowners with very little compensation for their beautiful productive estates - leaves a very bad impression!)

agreed!

Thank you Gary. We have been saying this about our homeland of Africa for ages and it saddens me😡☹️ I live in Scotland but go back home every year but when I watch Western media I don't recognize the southern Africa they portray. Yes it's not paradise but a tourist will never come to any harm

@@christinetoevs6641 come to Zim you wint even notice you are white in terms of how you are treated. Ask around

I just seem to hold my breath! wait, let me check, NOPE, nails gone toooo!😂😂😂

I get a little nervous when she rides so close to the edges of the road where there are steep drop off on the sides, the mud puddle at 21:10 got me a little this time. Narrow bridges (19:49) are another concern, it might just be the way the camera presents it but still, my heart goes up in my throat sometimes. Noraly's ridding skills are amazing, getting better and better with all the riding she is doing.

She's taking too many chances. It's not America or EU with helicopters. She breaks her leg, oh my uncle in the next village has an oxcart. We can get you to the bus depot by tomorrow. Then only one more day to reach the capital city.

@@irvhh143 Zim now has a helicopter ER now and its very efficient.

@@GmanGura So, is that the plan?

It is integral to the channel getting the attention that it does.

Noraly explained why she does't have a partner. She moves and makes decisions fast and unencumbered.

"I get knocked down, and I get up again..." what was that song?

That lyric is from the album title song"Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba. Nice association :)

Wou this was a really mud playing.

Yes Glenn Miles I whole heartedly agree with you.

Me too 😉

What Glenn Miles said! I'm nearly 83 y.o. and admire your spirit more than I can write. Onward, Noraly!

اتفق معك

Totally agree!

My Bro had a similar Motorcycle experience riding up the Dempster Hwy in Northern Territory in Arctic Canada. The Knobby Off Road Tires on his 1100cc Suzuki got plugged with mud from rainstorms. He had to turn around and drove to Tuktoyaktuk NT in a car several years later.

È bellissimo questo messaggio per Noraly e un po' per tutti noi che sogniamo insieme a lei ❤

yes indeed we are proudly zimbabwean

That is Savanna's work. Keep the speed up… and the bike want fall. Let the bike do it's things, and don't give to much input. The bike will keep it self up. But that is super difficult… Some times mission impossible. - She might have made it, going a little bit faster. But then again if she fall, the fall get much harder. Sooo… It's not one right way to do it. Its just very hard.

@@Gismo3333 Savanna has no mechanism for dealing with slippery mud, and I should know I've dropped enough bikes because of riding into slippery mud. The best you can do as the tyres lose traction, and the wheels slide sideways, is try and lay the bike down as gently as you can. And yes, my personal exprience of laying bikes down because one or both wheels went sideways in slippery mud, is why I'm confident I would have spent less time upright on that ... I'd call it a road, but it doesn't seem like the right word for it. The only reason Noraly spent so much time upright, is because she is a very good rider... although I'm going with the excuse that she's had a lot more practice than me.

@@Gismo3333 Right, you have to keep your speed up and the momentum going. And pick good lines. I know it's easier said than done sometimes. I've ridden in slippery mud like that before and it's extremely difficult.

@@trevorjameson3213 When you have no traction, you have no lines to pick. I'm amazed that there are people in this world who've never driven ridden in tractionless, or almost tractioness conditions. Advising people to accelerate to imo certain doom. I can't say I'll be doing that, ever. It just sounds like a good way to wreck your bike/car, and maybe if you're unlucky yourself.

Absolutely, if she had been on a large, heavy bike (BMW 1200GS, anyone?) try to lift that up, when it's lying on its side in slippery mud....a light bike is almost a pre condition for this dirt road riding.

Imagine if she was on Ronin

country is beautiful

Does the 20+ minutes video seem to end when it just started? I know Noraly has me that captivated

No, she wasn't speaking to you, she was talking to me.

@@robertscranton2358 indeed she's got me completely as well

All of you are getting it so wrong! She was talking to meeeeeeee!

@@henkbielderman4243 nope:MeMysef&I ! lol

More speed and standing on the pegs shifting your body quickly to balance and stay upright is best, but hard to do knowing you're in the middle of nowhere and knowing that to damage the bike would be hugely problematic. In this case, it might be better in terms of safety to chug along and 'paddle' instead.

@@thetessellater9163 Thanks for the reasoning. I had a feeling there was good cause for both depending on factors that may not be apparent.

Yes, I fully agree with your comment and you have put the pictures into words very nicely.

@@thetessellater9163 I agree - It would´ve been quicker and easier, provided you don´t wash out. Then you would be screwed. So slow and safe was the right decision in my mind.

You are really brave

Because of British colonialism lol

Agreed there are many beautiful places in Africa, i lived there for 2 years and visited Zimbabwe and many other countries. I would NOT recommend a white woman traveling alone by motorcycle in some of the places she's been, i would warn anybody against doing that. Africa can be a very dangerous place, especially for a young white woman.

@@journeyman553 do u have real stories to back what u just said about white women or u are just making unnecessary useless assumptions

@@LillianMhandu I lived in Africa for 2 years. I've been in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Mozambique. Enough said. You should study the recent history of those countries before questioning my statement but you are obviously too lazy to do that.

@@journeyman553 i am a Zimbabwean born and raised in Zimbabwe was once in south Africa never heard of such bull shit stop fake stories 🚮

@@LillianMhandu "none is blinder than he who chooses not to see. " White settlers were murdered and driven out of Zimbabwe. { go ahead and deny THAT } Many of those that did the murdering are still of the same mindset. South Africa has had the same sort of trouble more recently. To be fair there are MORE dangerous countries in Africa to visit but for a white woman to travel alone in in Zimbabwe and South Africa is not the smartest thing in the world.

The Dutch toughness!

K270 kenda aren’t great in mud.

@@Psanders-pd3dr I know it I have two on my Kawasaki KLX 250 E. But they are very good for the gravel road at home in the north of Sweden.

@@Psanders-pd3dr which ones are? thanks

I was hoping that it was not going to get worse. I've have rode in heavy clay that after awhile just plugged the front tire and wheel and just slid until you crashed. Clean it out and try again. I found that non stick cooking spray helped a lot when sprayed on clean tires.

It seems Noraly is also a mental health therapist!!

Cake mix would be nicer than the goo of that trip. Reminded me of some places when farming. I have seen mud like that 100mm thick on tractor tyres.

Agreed!

I agree 👍,,,

She probably edits the "juicy" stuff out.

@@dickcheney2470 Duh!

@@dickcheney2470 That's what the edits are for. why you gotta be such a dick about it?

😂😂😂😂😂

Nice Z1R mate !! Ive got a mk 1 aswell. Ive had it for 33 years. Presently restoring with a brand new head. Would like to hear about your bike. Cheers 👍

@@mathewcridland1084 Nice I’ve had mine for about 12 years now, I have a 1976 RD 400 I restored about 5 years ago . I got a little carried away and went full cafe style on it , made my own seat with integrated lights and rearsets for brake and shifter, sunburst head , motocarria pipes , flatslides and power dynamo ing. She’s a little screamer . Do you do much riding?

@@kene6838 ride as often as possible. Great roads here in Western Australia. Like what you bought your daughter for graduation present 👍👍 RD400 cafe,,brilliant ! Had RZ350 in my past. Have GSXR1000w that I ride across Oz for motogp at Philip Island every couple of years. How about yourself ? Still have Z1R ??

@@kene6838 chasing rear set for Z1R,,, any ideas ? Appreciate input 👍👍cheers mate

@@kene6838 hay Ken mate, any chance you could record/post walk around of Z1R ? That would be AWRSOME to see !!

😂😂

Me too! EXHAUSTED "riding along" 😭. Noraly is tenacious, high spirited and absolutely TIRELESS.

I'm still binge watching season 1. I'll be like, "I'll just watch a couple of episodes." Two hours later...

@@tkc8873 I get it :) I think it's the music - it sort of draws you in

Have been following her for over a year. She is the reason to get up early on M-W-and Friday. She should be used as an inspiration to all especially the girls. Real girl power.

don't want to waste that adrenaline, especially when a big lift awaits!

А как чертовски сложно поднять упавший мотоцикл, тем более если он с богажём.

I lived in Mutare for may years and know the Honde valley quite well
