  • In this episode, I am riding to Kirindy forest, in Madagascar, together with my local guide Didier. I'm renting a KTM350 but riding here during the rainy season is very, very tricky. The water levels are about waist high, but since you can't see the bottom, it's a gamble. Every. Single. Time.

      Noraly is incredible. That riding through the water had me puckered up, but she did it. In my younger years I did a lot and I mean a lot of dirt bike riding. That was pretty intense. Once I had to tow my nephew 10+ miles through serious rugged terrain after he drowned his Honda X-R 250. I also had the same bike to tow him with. Those old 250’s were tough. Can’t believe my clutch held up.

    ❤I lost a son unexpectedly 2 years ago. He had just turned 34. He left a wife and 2 small children.
    I was so down, no inspiration for anything.
    Itchy Boots - Noraly gives me the inspiration to do stuff. I hate driving, and do not even own a motorcycle, but there is something about her strength and personality; the gorgeous places and songs…
    The challenge and adventure!!! Such a strong woman.
    Thank you dear Noraly!!!

      @@turtle-frogs According to Science Direct there has been only a 29% loss of forest cover in the past 2 decades. According to another study done by American University it has lost around 50 percent of its forest cover since the beginning of human habitation. For Madagascar to lose that much is quite devastating because it didn't have a large amount of forest in the beginning, only. Wikipedia claims have been made of losing 80 to 90 percent of forest cover since human habitation, but it hasn't got any real evidence to back up that claim. William J. McConnell and Christian A. Kull wrote that the natives burnt the forests over a thousand years ago, but of course proving that is nearly impossible.

It is like nothing I have seen anywhere. I recently watched a CZcams video by Vox as they investigated a mysterious village that appeared in the maps deep in Madagascar. The village did not exist like 20 years ago. Their research led to an amazing discovery of how a family from another region of Madagascar discovered a fertile yet unclaimed volcanic crater. Settled inside and started farming. Thank you for sharing the adventures of Madagascar.

    What an incredible chapter, Didier has it so clear, he is a tremendous rider.... it was lovely to see the two of them run, side by side, I loved it!!!!! A great companion..... I guess Revit will send you a neoprene kit and some frog legs to continue your visit to Madagascar!!!! It was very funny to see that hut with a baobab in the backyard..... IT WAS THE ENTIRE BACKYARD!!!! incredible, a place from another planet.... Thank you Noraly for showing us this reality that surpasses any fiction!!!! Until Sunday. Take care of yourself.

    Noraly was so excited, cruising at a steady high speed, screaming "ooh hoo hoo," and saying, "this is a beautiful track." Then all of a sudden, she lands in a muddy pond in the middle of the road, gets stuck, and her tone changes amidst a chuckle to: "this is really tricky." LOL 😆🤣🤣!

    Once again intrepid road warrior, Noraly, takes us with her through amazing scenery, huge mud-puddle slalom tracks, pushing through, undeterred, even after getting a mud-splattered facial (Luckily, she wasn’t hurt.), she laughs it off. At her destination, she proudly shows her soiled armour and her excitement to venture into the night jungle to see the animals there. How lucky we are to share in her adventurous journey. Thank you for taking us with you.

      If she continues to go straight through the middle of "unknown depth" puddles, in her gambling approach, she will drown her bike, and be stuck in the mud...that is what will go wrong. and then she will need the help of others obviously...Best to avoid that and just go around the shallow edges, like everyone else does in the off roading world.....Seems odd that she doesn't know that yet....

    Baobabs are such special trees - I have always loved them and have seen so many photos of those beautiful Madagascan baobabs. So very different to our southern African baobabs. So amazing to be riding with Noraly through entire landscapes filled with them. Stunning. Also always wanted to see the unique Madagascan wildlife. Really enjoyed this episode.

    Hi to all
    The fact that Noraly just swipes aside all adversity and challenges is a testament to who she is and her strength, my two beautiful daughters along with myself have watched Noraly from her first CZcams video through India on her trusty Himalayan and onto history and throughout the world and now Madagascar showing the world a kilometre at a time the true world for all of us to see, is and always will be a testament to mis Noraly, my daughter talk about you at home, in the car and how they would love to be just like Mis Noraly.
    You mis Noraly are and forever will be an inspiration to not only my daughters, however to me as well.
    You are an inspiration to the world. The whole world.
    Kind and sincere regards
    T. R & J

      Nice comment Terry. I can't think of a better role model for your daughters to follow. All the big TV, music and sports stars so many people idolize often are not good role models yet they get the most attention. Its all backwards. I myself have changed to act and react more like Noraly and it has made a big difference in my life. Peace! No one can be compared to Noraly and Noraly can't be compared to anyone. Peace! From USA, G'day mate!

    This is what is all about in exploring on a motorcycle, no need for a heavy machine which some riders believe bigger is better. It's just you, your motorcycle and nature which makes you focus of admiring the scenery, enjoy the wind, and where you take your bike on the trail, your mind clears itself of all the stress and troubles you have or know; when it's over, it is a "good tired and relaxing", thanks Noraly, I can just feel what you are riding through, good thing my computer doesn't splash mud and water at me, just funin.

    Way back in 1985, I had the privilege of working in Madagascar for a few months so it’s a real treat to watch your adventures there, Noraly. We were pretty busy taking care of a bunch of helicopters so I didn’t get to see as much as you are seeing but I got around a bit and saw some amazing things. I hope that you get to visit the limestone forest because that was one of the most amazing things that I have ever seen.

It has been fun watching you gain experience riding off road over the years and this video shows how much you've progressed. You were really attacking those tracks and ponds with good speed and no fear!
    I grew up on dirt/enduro bikes but have spent most of my life riding on pavement, I really miss the dirt. Your videos have definitely inspired me to save up for Kawi KLR and I can't wait 😎
