WILL I SURVIVE THE DINARIC RALLY?

[@twowheelrodeo]

You look Great! Really cool video. Nice rentals. The blood vessels restrict with vibration though it caused by vibration. The hands go numb they are dry, though will reopen later as the hand needs less vibration sill requires circulation. I navigated a wheel for endless time.

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Oh wow that’s a great explanation. Thank you.

[@MrBeltaine]

Fascinating stuff regarding what it takes for multi-day event. It has to be even extra crazy for an unsupported privateer. Brings back memories of being support crew for 24 hour auto rally events in the 1970s. So much fun! I highly recommend that one of your support staff be cross-trained as a chiropractor/masseuse. Getting the energy & hydration protocol correct can be a painful process. Even the kit you wear is a learning process. Something as simple as a seam/hem in the wrong place can make you miserable. Your competion vids are effing awesome. Rock on Vanessa!

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Wow thanks dude. That’s such mega feedback. You are so right about the seams and good. The 1000 Dunas rally I just did was in supported and doing filming so stay tuned for that hehe

I am a passionate rider and mechanic who loves Honda bikes living in Korea, and I manage Honda dealers. You are a very amazing woman. I'm very surprised to see you doing well on bikes, various leisure activities, and even the difficult mecanic jobs that women are reluctant to do. If you were my neighbor, you might have been a very good friend. It may have been amazing to go on a tour together, camp, and maintain. It's because I have the most ideal woman I think. I always watch your videos. I wonder how blessed it would be to meet you in this life. I always support you. May luck always be with you.

Hello Vanessa - That is very funny to see the Hotel Adria Ski - which is base camp for the Bosnia Rally in the Danaric Rally again - we had a great time there. Hope you tried the food at the restaurant at the end of the street to the hotel. This was incredible. Great fun to see you riding Offroad. And in you Biwak walkaround I saw Nacho - the machanic that saved my bike as I had a damaged clutch during Bosnia Rally on my Husky. So this comunity is really a small virtual town😂

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Haha it’s mad how small the world is sometimes hey. I’ve been looking as the Bosnia rally for next year. Looks ace

[@WillysPerformanceCycleCtr]

Finally, I found time to watch your Dinaric Rally! Amazing, it seems like only a short bit ago you were learning to read a road-book. I know that rallying is a dirty mess, but you clean up really well. Lol…. Morning of Day 5, the fog burned 🔥 off and girl you burned up the trail. Great finish. You can do it! Great video Vanessa, really proud of you! Ride safe!

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Aw Yey. Thanks dude. Super happy you enjoyed

[@eddiethompson2798]

As a 63 year old guy who suffers with neuropathic pain I find you so inspirational. Ive never quit riding, but your attitude to life and the videos you make help me through bad days and I'm constantly reminding myself that if you can do it then I'm never ever giving up. Thank you

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Oh wow. That’s such a lovely message. Thanks Eddie. Genuinely, knowing you get energy from my energy..gives me energy hehe we all get energy. 🥰😘😘

[@Colwood22]

Just an amazing video, we have been waiting for this one and it didn't disappoint. You really captured the essence of rallying, all the work that goes into the preparation and the amount of energy it takes to get through it. Plus the footage of being on the bike, it was like we could almost feel every bump and corner as you rode. You are such an incredible person, we love your channel and can't wait to see what you do next!

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Wow Colin. Thank you. Such kindness brings me so much energy. Thank you so much

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Gosh I hope you could not feel ALL the bumps haha that would be exhausting 😂

[@borilapostolov7474]

5days you say. Looks easy 2me, although I do not have the physical training to do this type of competition. Thank you again for sharing this beautiful event. Keep going girl! Meanwhile I will keep waiting for the next video. Love from Bulgaria, Sofia.

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Thank you. I promise more videos to come hehe

[@zweispurmopped]

It's a very wise choice to put control and security over speed! And yes, no one knows better than you what the price can feel like when things go wrong. 😶 An ace documentary about an ace lady having an ace time! That, erm, ace? 🤷‍♂🤗🤩

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Haha ace. Hehe thanks lovely

[@kevinh8338]

Congratulations Vanessa. . . . It took me 2 weeks to click on and watch this (due to the length) but I appreciate the ‘one video’ format rather than chopping it up into 5 videos . . . Also inspired to learn how to read a rally book!

[@mikep.9371]

Congratulations are due Vanessa. Only 8 minutes behind Tanya and filming for us at the same time. Nicely edited too. Did you use the gifted rally cream! Take care 'n hope the bum wasn't too soar.

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Heheh the cream worked a treat but it still gets a little sore. Thanks so much for watching Mike. Adding the filming to riding definitely makes it more intense too but I enjoy it. It’s an honour to be able to share

[@lincspeed]

Excellent content! I really value seeing all the gear and stuff you wear or carry. I’m looking forward to seeing Itchy Boots report next Sunday on her entry into Dinaric 2023. She’s not anywhere nearly as experienced as are you in this challenging type of riding. But she has tons of moxie and determination!

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Thanks so much, mega appreciate that!

[@JEmmertz]

Excellent editing! You made us feel like we were part of the rally and action - we just lacked out on the real world dust, the bum ache and the tingly fingers. Always a pleasure to watch what you bring to us. Keep it up!

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Hehe thanks dude. The bottom part is definitely a good thing haha

[@rebeccachristie1969]

You rock. 🙌 Totally loved this video. Any time you want an Osteopath to come and sort out your post rally aches and pains gimme a shout 😊 I am like a house elf don’t need much to keep me happy 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Oh my goodness. I’d bite your hand off with that offer! If you’re actually based anywhere near me (Monmouthshire) and if it was a genuine offer…please message me on Instagram or Facebook haha if it was a joke… then just ignore my desperate reply 😅

[@paul.vanhout57]

Impressive result and incredible footage - thank you for sharing. Rally riding looks very challenging but approachable. Use of the road book is interesting and adds another dimension to the ride.

Bloody brilliant stuff! I'm recovering from collarbone graft and plate surgery and now looking to try at least one motorcycle event next year, my first ever, after doing mountain bikes for years. This really inspires me 👏

[@TheGirlOnABike]

That’s a wicked go to have, sorry to hear about your injuries, but it sounds like you have the great attitude to get over it. I really would recommend looking up the Dinaric Rally if you’re after a rally experience. It was fantastic. Nomadas us would be a great option for bike rental and support too

I have a nerve in my neck that gets pinched or something after I'm in the saddle for a couple hours. When I fall asleep in a chair my arms go numb pretty quickly but I don't get it when I'm in bed. I'm a bit scared of the chiropractor but I think that is what is needed. I'm sure you'll get through it and past it.

Oh gosh. Sorry to hear that. Thank you.

Still watching but I noticed your ear buds, what kind are they? Are they comfortable inside your ears with helmet,are they android compatible? ok thank you, back to the video! it's great!

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Hey dude I use Custom fit guards so they are custom moulded to your ear. Mad comfortable, you don’t know they are there and can wear for hours issue free. I have the ones with filters so bad noises is blocked but you can still talk and use your Cardo intercom. They are not Bluetooth if anything. I have a friend discount code for them if you’re interested too. Custom Fit Guards customfitguards.com/?ref=TheGirlOnABike use code “GIRLONABIKE” 10% off

Hi Vanessa , just wondering out of Tunisia, the Hellas and dinaric which is the most difficult ? Next year will be my first year doing rally’s and had planned for Tunisia and the Hellas but the dinaric may be a better choice than Tunisia ? Any advices appreciated . Regards billy

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Hi Billy Tunisia is a extreme rally raid, it's definitely one of the hardest out there. I would suggest Dinaric would be the best for sure. Hellas is very over subscribed and so it's a vary dusty event. Good but I'd sway to Dinaric personally. You definitely want very solid navigation experience before tunisa

[@randtourner]

It would be fan heaven if you, Noraly and Lindon could team up for a rally together. It would be tricky finding a time when all three of you are mended and on the same continent.

[@TheGirlOnABike]

That does sound like one wild adventure

[@garydavies2329]

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Wow, thanks hehe that's made me smile, thanks for being so kind. Just remember I was a totally newbie beginner 6 years ago so it's all possible with practice. I've not been off road riding long

[@JaisonV-it6xv]

Vanessa your video is very big, why not break up into single days 👍

[@TheGirlOnABike]

Yeah I didn’t think about it but it took me so long to get it out I decided to keep as one. I hope people can still watch it in parts 🙏
