In this episode I am racing stage 3 and 4 of the BAJA RALLY and stage 4 was very tough for me. Multiple crashes and a bad injury made this a fight I will never forget.

There are 1.5 million people who witnessed and respect the "metal" of Noraly. It's a true testament of courage and enduring pain to continue. This is different than her touring past, but a true test of being a moto adventurer in the most difficult terrain. Noraly has made friendships for life and, of course, Charly's presence to watch over her. Brava Noraly!

When Noraly arrived to the end of the timed stage and was all quiet, you could tell it was BAD! But what a show of grit and perseverance to continue even after that, whoa! And the world is lucky to have also guys like Pancho and Charly...

@olenilsen4660 Год назад

Thanks for looking out for her, it is so great to see the companionship between riders also in a race like this! I think ADV and dual sport riders just are a bit more aware of the dangers involved than anyone that only rides on tarmac. No offense to those, of course, but I think we have a little different mindset, because someone could actually die out there, if we did not stop to help.

@jozefkarla2445 Год назад

when you were crying in pain I almost had tears in my eyes with you, but you got on your bike and rode on...and the help from other riders is amazing.

I've been riding for about 50 years I've had over 25 bikes. I've probably done about 10 desert races. I've seen you ride all around the world from your videos. You are hands-down one of the best there is. No one can take that from you and you know that. Of all the places I've crashed silty Rocky hills are almost the worst but the ruts on corners when the ground is semi-hard packed with loose rocks just to be out there is incredible so you are indeed incredible I think it is so wonderful the way that you do your videos and ride at the same time. What a way to live your life congrats that's very cool.

@Theodorussfo Год назад

I learned something new today. On that last hill where she stopped, she wasn't resting she was gathering her wits to overcome the pain she was in. Noraly conquered the last part of that hill in a standing position with that awful leg injury. Today I learned you can spell courage N-o-r-a-l-y.

For those who have never ridden any type of desert riding, rally or enduro, it’s so hard to explain how brutally hard this is. Once fatigue sets in, mistakes become frequent and crashes are the norm and so damn painful. Picking up your bike when you’re exhausted just makes you even more tired. All these riders have so much grit to fight through the pain and exhaustion. They’re all such badasses! So impressive! Heal fast Noraly! We're rooting for you!!!! ❤

@MotoPavilion Год назад

99% of all these falls are because they are tired. Fitness is crucial here.

@karlklein2966 Год назад

You are correct. I rode California desert for 25 years and the only injuries I got (and there were quite a few) were when I was tired.

@henryarn Год назад

Rightly so but also added to the equation is her ride from South America to Alaska....and back to US!. Not much a break! The compounding stress over the last year. She could finish the rally with one leg but I hope she gets examined for stress fractures. Her heart is stronger than her body.

@KDad514 Год назад

Until you have actually raced this type of off roading you will never understand how physically taxing it is. When you are also injured it really takes all of your will to carry on. The mental fatigue can be as exhausting as the physical stress. I know because I have raced off road in the past. Noraly you are a beast.

@YoutubeSupportServices Год назад

The "FUNNY" part to me is;... The ride, The terrain, and the combined-totality of everything including the Distance, AT LEAST "TO ME", is no more "taxing" than a walk-in-the-park!...HOWEVER, ... After I climb inside of all the DAM; PERPETUAL-SWEAT-GENERATING, OXYGEN-RESTRICTIVE, MOVEMENT-RESISTANT, HEAT-PROPAGATING, REGRET-INCUBATING, LIFE-SUCKING, ENCAPSULATION OF "LIGHT-WEIGHT" RIDING-GEAR... It turns the beauty of a "walk-in-the-park" into something that's remotely equivalent to experiencing the "beauty and thrill of the 'Empire State Building's' observatory on the 86th-floor.... WITHOUT USING AN ELEVATOR!...

@tonysansom Год назад

You could tell how taxing it was just hearing her breathing.

@jasonzerbini2375 Год назад

The mental aspect is a very good point. What people "see" is the physical demand and even then, most who watch can not understand how brutal hours of off road rallying or enduro racing is. But then there is the mental aspect, which is very difficult for most to understand because we can't "see" it. I think viewers can relate that its tough but they just don't know how incredibly tough and there are a very few men out there who can compete in such an event let alone women. Noraly is an incredible person inside and out. We love you.

Do not listen to all of these negative comments. You live your life the way you want to. Most of those negative people live miserable pathetic lives and are afraid to leave their own houses much less travel the world or race in a rally in Baja. What you did and do is an amazing feat for anyone, male or female, and shows just how amazing you are. Challenges like that are what makes life worth living. Keep it up and never stop pushing yourself. As a fellow racer, rider and true fan I want to tell you…Awesome job!!!!

You are absolutely so gutsy, so determined. I am relieved that Charlie and Pancho have got your back. Do what you have gotta do, but stay in one piece ok!! All the best and lots of love., cheers and tears from a non-rider in NZ.

@jeffristine9869 Год назад

Noraly, ignore all of the negative people commenting on this video. I was so inspired after watching this video. It reminded me of two of my favorite quotes from Sir Edmund Hillary. “People do not decide to become extraordinary. They decide to do extraordinary things.” And the second “It is not the mountain that we conquer, but ourselves.” I am pretty sure none of the negative people have ever attempted anything extraordinary and I am certain they have never conquered much in life. Your courage and determination are an inspiration to so many of us. Thank you for leading the way and showing all of us that we can accomplish so much more in this life if we would have the courage to step out and set our sights on the extraordinary.

You’re so right: hundreds of miles without falling, then you fall the first time, and the magic seems gone and you come off again and again. As you say, perhaps it’s about losing confidence or getting tired or whatever. Hope your injury was not too bad, good luck with it. I am really enjoying this rally series.

@greyfisher3897 Год назад

Its equally annoying to read comments like yours, underestimating the true dangers of motorcycling, off road or on. This is a classic example of a rider getting a "little ahead of herself", after successfully touring the world. This notion of crashing being part of it is dangerous in attitude and reality. Crashes should be avoid at all costs, so should renting ill prepared motorcycles, and a machine that is too tall for her body height, etc. An injury was inevitable. If you read my earlier posts you will see that this was predicted prior to the race. Your annoyance is only a reflection of your own inability to comprehend the true point of comments like this, that they are warnings. Did you ever hear of a man named Charlie, from "long way round" fame. He figured he was ready to race, bought a rally bike, and crashed breaking both his wrists. Not something anybody should "learn from". Get a grip people, literally, and stop crashing and laughing it off, its just luck usually that keeps people from serious injury. Her luck ran out in this race.... torn leg muscles in the largest muscle of the body body, one you depend on walking with....come on, come on...Really? Racing doesn't make you a more skillful rider. Leave those comments to racers.......practice make you a skillful rider. Racing and crashing, makes you a cripple, and the pressure and fatigue associated with racing is extremely dangerous. Reserved for pure athletes, not week end warriors. Hopefully she learns from this crash, and the crash that nearly broke her ankle. She readily admitted that she is not good at steep rocky uphills. That is very difficult terrain, and injuries from those types of hard crashes will leave most people unable to walk.....

@paulayala4816 Год назад

Having raced (500, 550) and chased in the Baja it is deceiving how rough it really is. Sections that are bad you think, "it's not that bad", will swallow up tires and twist parts. it always seems to happen when you drop speed is when you get stuck. We used to have a sticker on the front bar that read "when in doubt punch it", a slap on the sticker was a good reminder not to be too cautious.

I'd already watched this vid and given it a Big Thumb's Up when I saw the Insta story and it broke my heart for you. Of course you belong where you are, doing what you love with all those amazing people! And besides, like you said before, you wanted to do the rally so you could ride harder and not worry so much about injuries because there's support crew and other riders, and you're doing it! Finding limits, pushing yourself. That's the whole point of endurance racing! What I think is funny is that in the Africa rally the back of your motorcycle fell off, and this time the front did!

I don’t usually post comments on YT but your Insta posting has motivated me, and I know that even strong people still need and deserve support. Stay strong Noraly. One life! Live it! Met vriendelijke groeten en respect.

I get really nervous watching these videos but can't stop watching. If I could ride off road a quarter as well as you Noraly I'd be very happy. You are one amazing, skilled and courageous lady and to do such and incredible job sharing your adventures with us is truly a blessing for all who follow you around the world. Keep doing what you do so well and please stay safe.

You are such a warrior! Never give up! In the worst of the situations you always smile....love it!

@williamstreet4304 Год назад

I think we are seeing a new side to Noraly. We've seen her struggle through many difficult rides without a complaint or giving up. Now we are seeing the real rally side of her. Just amazing!

@mikep.9371 Год назад

Mandy, what a friend to be there with and for Noraly. Always in the background but your support, filming, and being there is great to see. Hope your having an adventure of your own far from home.

@craigedwards9053 Год назад

Wow Noraly, such courage & determination! I really admire you for giving this a go. It looks almost as mentally demanding as physical. Obviously the injury looks bad but hanging on the next episode to see if you can complete stage 6! Thanks for everything in 2022, you’re amazing & can’t wait for 2023! Let’s go!!

WOW, nothing but respect for you Noraly. For not giving up and even self riding to the bivouac. RESPECT. Get well soon. And what a hero Pancho was for you.

I admire your "never quit attitude". I've been watching you for awhile. With that being said.... You scare me. Stay safe out there.

@Oz1111 Год назад

Wow. I admire your determination, grit, and ability to keep positive attitude thru all hardships you faced during this challenge. You are one hell of a woman! God bless and good luck on your journey.

@lkastaas Год назад

Noraly you are one of the toughest women out there riding for years and still taking on something like this. Its amazing to see you ride in all sorts of terrain and thru mountains and forrest. Wish you a speedy recovery and a happy Christmas - hopefully with family or at least some good friends - You have friends all over the world now who wishes you the best. Take care and thanks for sharing both good and bad times. Wish you all luck and good times for the future! 👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤

Watching this was tough. Seeing you so tired and hurt made me cry! You are such a warrior!!

@hilarycopp Год назад

I love watching you ride. Brings back all my memories of dirt biking with my husband. I always made horrible navigation errors (picking the wrong line) when I was tired. I cannot imagine the anabolic state your body was in during that section. Amazing job.

@lindalewis5488 9 месяцев назад

Well done! That kind of riding for extended periods is absolutely exhausting and takes a lot of strength, love your determination!

@bridgetedwardsmentalhealth409 Год назад

OMG Noraly, watching this was painfully difficult - your hard falls, fatigue, quivering voice, tears, bruises and torn muscles... I just cried for you!!! Plus, the hugs and encouragement from Charlie, Poncho and all the back up guys is a testimont to your sheer grit and determination - these guys all have HUGE respect for you. Although you endured SO much pain, it's evident that your riding skills have improved exponentially. Kudos to you. I don't care what rank you achieved at the finish line - you're a CHAMPION through and through! 💫💥🏅👏

@gerokron3412 Год назад

What an epic struggle. The last photo looks really bad, but my own leg hurt watching that episode anyways. Hats off to you for finishing! That´s what´s all is about: to challenge yourself. I really hope the muscle will recover quickly! Godspeed, Mam!

@bitterrider Год назад

Many people only dream about such an adventure, but you realize it and show it to us without embellishments. I admire your commitment and courage. Stay as you are.

You are one tough girl. I am a third Dan blackbelt and we have a thing that when it gets bad you dig from within and never give up. You my friend have that indomitable spirit. You have come so far and your talent continues to grow. Stay strong and heal fast!

@dandersonjr Год назад

Very few people have impressed me in my 59 years of life other than friends and family but between your travels in different foreign countries and to persevere through this kind of racing you have more than earned my respect for you. You have truly earned the 1.5M viewers you have and deserve many more.

cograts girl you have a strong heart ,,, not many tough women like you !! keep on riding off the road and stay safe, when you feel you are tired and can't hold the defecult trails, take a break and rest for some time then stand up up and ride again ,,,, no need to hury no one is chasing you ... only time. regards from Greece

@adub59 Год назад

Oh man……! That whole rock section was what we called a “bomb track” when I was racing desert….as in looking like it was cluster bombed from the air! Sections like that often made me want to ask the race organizer if they also like to torture little animals. Exceptionally well done Noraly. MAJOR RESPECT!!!!!

@carmenbotto8446 Год назад

Christ, this woman is seriously impressive!!! Heart, courage, soul - Noraly, I was in tears for all of these attributes as you displayed them in this episode. I am speechless. Inspirational, just frigging Inspirational!

I want to thank Poncho Alonzo Diaz for helping you pick up your beta and looking after you until the end of the stage. He has guided a small group I put together a couple years ago. I'm glad you made it!

Tackle one thing at a time - don't worry in advance! And your contagious positivity and excitement! I was so sad to see you hurt today 😭 you're so brave, both for doing such a fierce race but also for showing your struggles. It just makes me admire you even more! ❤️ I wish you the best of recovery!! 🤗

@meiersa78 Год назад

Noraly, I don't know if you'll ever see this, but... Thank you. I only discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago and since then I can't stop watching episode after episode. You're an inspiration to so many and loved by millions around the world. I'm appalled by the comments you received and shared on IG. Don't ever let the negativity from those trolls and haters get to you. Rock on and enjoy the ride! 💪 I've ridden extensively through Vietnam for a decade and your videos bring back so many memories filled with awe. Driving through the mist on a mountain at sunrise, dodging cows, dogs, buffalos, and chickens that appear out of nowhere, sliding through the mud on trails that are barely even walkable... I am reliving all this excitement through your videos until I am back on the road myself. Thank you ❤
