SUDDEN END to Dinaric Rally for ITCHY BOOTS 

And THIS friends is what makes NORALY our heroine!!!

👍👍👍♥️

Every biker would say get smart.... but accidents are impossible to predict, stop! just good planing and equipment can reduce the chance of a major injury! She is at her limit, she's been doing this wonderful channel for years now... now it's taking it's physical toll on her :o( I want much more ItchyBoots but not at the cost of you pyhsical harm!!!!

@@devilsadvocate1597 Well said! I totally agree.

@@karelovstakken3692 It must be terrible to have to go through life with such an enormous chip on your shoulder as you have.

He followed the code of ethics to assist , his lost time should have been adjusted at the end of the day . That has added greatly to his rally story . Adventure begins when things go wrong

She said little of him and more of others.@@2000jago

Noraly's a lot tougher than the bikes she rides 🙂

Tell that to the hand.......or whats left of it. Downplaying a broken hand, a right hand, for a right handed individual, seems strange.....have you really thought about what you are saying? My point being these types of injuries don't always fully heal...your 100% certainty is based on what exactly? So I can deduce from your comment that you agree this is a serious injury, and that you believe, for some reason, that crashing and hurting yourself seriously is part of it, as she claims. This myth is propagated by her, and others, and the near entire comment stream on this following. This was inevitable I am afraid, as predicted by myself in earlier videos. Not because its "part of it" but because there is such a thing as riding beyond your skill level. World travel, and racing (rallying), are actually different enough. Ask Charlie Bowman...who famously traveled the world, then naively entered the Paris Dakar.....and predictably broke both his wrists.....in a basic fall. Two peas in a pod. I will also point out that she near broke her foot and ankle trying to get up a rocky hill in the middle of the desert sun, alone. So that is the first serious injury, this the second...foot, then hand...pretty sure that counts as serious.......unless you are in la la land.

@@greyfisher3897 ...anyway. Have a nice day all!

@@greyfisher3897 Not sure how much riding you have done but i kept an eye on her speed and at no stage was she doing anything silly the speed was appropriate for the terrain she wasnt cranking it on and going crazy fast . As far as the injury im sure if it was thought that it wouldnt heal they would have put a couple of screws or a plate .And yes they are not great injuries a right hand for a right handed person its very hard to wipe your bum for one thing lol .

@@arfyseal I appreciate the reply to my comment. Well I am a championed off road/crosscounty/enduro rider, and a instructed for near 10 years, and have been riding now a total of 40 years on a 14 bikes, street and offroad. What I offered in my comment was constructive analysis based on watched several of her videos, particularly when the crashes occurred with injury. So my observation was what she said verbally.....15km/hr in tall grass looking for the trail. Fortunately she was not destracted by running a commentary, operating her go pro and drone cameras, and looking of clues on her tower of maps and timing equipment....she says. From my experience tall grass is extremely hazardous......it hides everything. So therefore traveling 15km/hr is too fast...you have to creep through tall grass if off the beaten path....hence her surprise and instinctive hands out protection reaction....As I said, ask Charlie Bowman...gets over his head...over confident from traveling and tried his hand at racing.....put his hands out, and broke both wrists....early in the race. So the point here is that all riders need to learn from this type of video. It is a basic rule for successful off road riding...success meaning no injury at the end of the day. Accepting injury as part of it,, this type of serious injury is plain foolhardy in principle. In this comment stream there is little to no analysis, just a bunch of over praising and encouragement. I listen to her words....she said in the video, that she was racing..."to improve her rock riding skills". This is not the place to practice. My feeling is that simply riding for the enjoyment and athleticism of it is what she needs to do more of. An unpacked bike, a proper enduro bike no laden wtih guidebooks and timers, no cameras, no distractions....just pure focus on the ride...the jumps, the rocks, the hills....in a pure fashion is what she needs to do. Leave the cameras at home and actually learn how to ride. I have studied her riding style, she is too stiff in the saddle, can barely jump a log, and has a terrible time in the rocks and hills. She is not racing material, maybe in a beginner class but any serious racing off road, or on, is well beyond her skill level. I have learned that she only began riding as an adult. Pure racing talent more often than not has to start at an early age, get all the crashing out of the way when you are young and strong. I have noticed that many of my observations are conveniently removed from this stream, as people don't seem to like the truth....just the false praise and claims of amazingness. Nothing amazing going on here...predictable accident.....I have been predicting it. What is amazing is her trudging around the planet...yes....racing talent..no.

im sorry u broke ur hand Scratchy Booty. Maybe this will give ur legs and bottom rash some chance to heal.

@@horstWindeboew Monkey Butt!

Love you, love your channel. Sorry what happened to your hand. Would be looking forward to your return.

@@garvin7599 read the book 'monkey butt' by Rick Seimen. I have a copy signed by him. It will be passed on to my grandson. Sadly, he will know, but not experience, the fun we had back in the days of Freedom.

She has been TEFLON coated for all of these years. 💞

Yes indeed! Hopefully, Noraly will heal soon and be able to continue her West Africa adventures. In the meantime, it’s fun to go back and watch her early episodes again!

@@WillysPerformanceCycleCtr Wow, you commenters are relentless, she has a broken hand, and you want her to heal up fast so she can continue posting in Africa. Do you not think that this type of injury can be life changing, even it only applies to the psychological challenges she will now face getting back in the saddle...what to break the other hand....come on, come on reallly? This injury was preventable and predictable, not because its "part of it", but because she is traveller, not a racer..not even a close comparison between the two. She has poor off road "racing" skills....hence the crashes with injury she routinely experiences.....particularly when she tries to be a racer.....its a whole different ballgame I am afraid. First of all, racers don't give running commentaries, they are focused.....on not getting hurt.....

Que inglés más bueno desde Argentina, bendiciones!

Noraly is indeed a great adventurer. It is so nice that she takes us with her by using video!

Always a pleasure . SALUT DU QUÉBEC

@@samuelhelt3851 Noraly , tellement inspirante et quelle belle personnalité , pas une journée sans que j'ai le goût de partir en expédition sur un rally bike !!

GOD.

Not two scoops a truck load of it

The ditch was may be of a cave may be you discovered a cave with major paleontologic findings

Ain't that the truth! Peace

So many Itchy Boots junkies here!🤣🤣❤

Are you sure its jealousy? Maybe she is concerned for you and questioning your admiration level....? I have that concern for most of the commenters on this following.....this injury was inevitable ( I have predicted this outcome on previous comments) Norally states that this injury is "part of it", which is entirely absurd. The objective is to avoid injury. Riding through tall grass ( without the expectation of holes and logs, and rocks etc) is a lesson I learned when I was about 10 years old. Something experienced riders don't do. Not sure if its a bravery thing that she goes out and "races" and breaks her hand going slow in tall grass...if you get my drift.

So what should she do when she breaks her foot, which she almost did in the desert in Arizona if I recall.....still trying to master the rocky hills even today "she said so in this video", Your comment about the fascination is accurate, she shouldn't be in the races and stick to what she does best, touring. Narrating a you tube channel while "racing" is incongruous, and inevitably will result in a crash.....focus is the key to racing success.....she even said that herself that she was finding it difficult to do the commentary and race.....but yet she still carried on doing so.....I hope she learns to ride without the filming and talking element, and learns to ride offroad properly instead of taking the half assed approach. Ya its that dangerous....many ADV riders....starting as adults, are learning this every time they break a bone , and post it and the xrays and the hospital visits on you tube.....nothing new here really.......sorry to say......

Good afternoon to you in Scottland from a small island in the Caribbean, Puerto Rico. Have a great day! 😊

Buenos Dias des de Arizona😊 (United States)

Magari ottima occasione per tornare in Olanda dai genitori

Cheers..

Nice one get better fast tourist time on two legs lol😊

Bad Luck Noraly. Heal quickly and look forward to your next amazing adventure.
