Holy smokes Noraly, that downhill run was incredible. A serious challenge. Glad you survived it & rode it well. A bit of a stretch & development of your skill set? Agree that one doesn’t always have to follow, as made by another of your fellow riders. Fantastic scenery. Great drone shots. Beautiful little villages. I laughed when you mention the challenge of getting moving early with the boys who don’t seem to be early risers like you. Just another great video. As to a future bike change… we’ll, enjoy following you as you make that decision. Thanks again for a great post.

[@tedthurgate]

I'm a new rider but a longtime skier and I notice something from skiing that holds true in riding. When you are fearful you mess up. Charging and attacking is what makes you successful. I will often follow someone down a run that I wouldn't have done on my own and if I follow without thinking I do fine. When I stop and think of I should, then hesitantly follow... I will fall every time.

Hi Noraly! This is one of the most beautiful videos I've watched on your channel so far. I've been following you for over two years now, and I've watched pretty much every video of yours. It's always a treat to see you explore new places by yourself, and do things so fearlessly that a lot of others won't even think of. Traveling solo gives you an incredible sense of joy, but it felt lovely to watch you go out on a ride with friends, ride together, crash, help each other out, and end it all with a big laugh. The right group of friends can truly help you make some of the most beautiful memories, and when I saw you laughing on the ground at the end, I found myself laughing too, even though I had no idea what the joke was. You're such a beautiful storyteller, and truly an inspiration to me. All the best, and I do hope to see more such content! :)

This is one of your best episodes, Noraly. I like the use of the different rider's cameras. I like your friends. When you rode the really rocky bits and down that hill at speed it again showed us that you are one excellent off road rider with 'balls' and a strong backbone. Your Dutchness comes through and I have to laugh, because, like you I like to get going in the morning not dawdle about with coffee and slow breakfast and conversation and all that more southern European stuff. LOL. I like to get up, pack up, eat some food, drink a coffee or two and go. My last long ride lasted 18 hours from 5:30 am until 11:30 pm. In this episode you were actually scaring me when you were going over stuff most people would not dare attempt to ride, not even on some light little bike not a big power job like the Ducati you are on. The camera angle really showed us the hell road you were on. Got to hand it to you, you can handle a big bike, but we all are in need of some further engineering on big bikes to make righting them more manageable. I have some ideas and have copyrighted them. I really liked Spain when I was there for a month and a half on one of my trips there. Before you were born. Spain is a lovely place to be. I like the culture very much. I went down the entire east coast from Perpignan to Algecieras on one of my trips. I was en route to Morocco. I eventually ended up on the border of the Spanish Sahara before heading back up the centre of Spain eventually spending a night sleeping in my Citroen van under the Eiffel Tower when there was a public parking lot there in 1972. Travelling around the world is one of the best educations we can provide for ourselves. I am very grateful to you, Noraly for bringing even more of the planet to my eyes and ears. Nice touch with the mascara. After all, dear Noraly, you are still a girl, after all and thousands love you around the planet, including me. From your friend and fellow motorcycle addict. Remember, perhaps, I told you that it was Season 6, episode 35 which determined for me to get back on a motorcycle. Hi to Charly, Killian and Roel. Thanks for going along with this chapter of Noraly's stories. Your presence in this video made me smile. Ride Safe guys.

If all your content was like these last two episodes I’d watch it religiously! The laughter and banter is completely charming! Nonetheless, I have the utmost respect for what you’re doing!!

As many others have said, it's nice to see Noraly laugh. As much as I enjoy the "normal" Itchy Boots episodes, it's clear, after watching this, that she is, understandably, under a lot of stress in those episodes...remote unfamiliar location, alone, unfamiliar people...Many things could go very wrong and it shows in her demeanor compared to this episode. Another commenter suggested that she intersperse her regular episodes with occasional meet-ups with trusted friends and trying other bikes. I second that recommendation.

So uplifting - that"s what life should be about. Friendship, freedom, adventure and fantastic scenery and of course, bike riding as well.

Ducati Desert X is a cool bike. But trying to do maintenance on it in remote places.. Not something I would do.

[@caturlifelive]

Agreed, how about Suzuki?. I think Suzuki also good

[@AndrewLewer90]

Ducati ain't like that anymore

[@stevestowell-virtue3781]

You would never source parts and even the maintenance schedule would be difficult to manage.

[@SabinTV-NP]

@@AndrewLewer90 I agree that the reliability of Ducati has gone up exponentially, but oh man if the Desert X broke down in one of the African countries, she'd be pretty fcked. Not to mention the prices on the spare parts and if the mechanics had to repair the Desert X like they did on the CRF, the complexity is just on an entirely different level.

Changing the air filter in desert x is hard and I agree even though I love mine.

What a great mini series Noraly. incredible views, routes and friends. A perfect example of the joy motorcycles can bring.

Glad you were having such a fun time with the three guys. Great scenery and fun trails. Since you cannot lift the Desert X by yourself, the Honda would be a better bet for you as you ride alone. If you were staying on hard surface roads, the Ducati would be a fun ride but by yourself, its too heavy and the Honda would be a better choice. Enjoy the ride with friends, be safe, and be careful.

Hele fijne aflevering dit, geweldig einde!! Fijn om zo’n groot plezier te zien tijdens deze avonturen!

Some good riding Noraly on those rocky ruts. I know you like exploring on your own, and you have made some great videos doing so, but it is great to see you relaxing with your mates.
