    And it’s a wrap! The official last video of season 6.. 🥹 You have now also caught up with me in real-time, because I am still waiting for Alaska to arrive! During season 6, I had built up the time between filming and releasing episodes substantially. That had several reasons and advantages. That way, I could reach Alaska in time before winter, didn’t have to stress with deadlines, I could make sure there was an episode ready every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I had time to race the Baja Rally and spend extra time on editing those videos. It also allowed me to keep my real-time location hidden, for my own safety, because the internet is mostly a beautiful but sometimes also a bit of a scary place :)
    But… shipping a motorcycle with sea freight is a time consuming hobby, so now all there is left to do is wait. Once my motorcycle arrives, I will start riding and filming and give myself a bit of a head start again so I can edit the first episodes before releasing them.
    Fingers crossed I can start soon because I am super excited to hit the road again! ❤❤
    I wish everybody a very happy 2023 and talk soon!!

It’s a true pleasure to work with people like yourself that keeps me doing what I do in the Motorcycle world!

    I love the way Itchy Boots travels globally but thinks locally.... Always using local resources, like private mechanics, or the photographers that is the daughter of the local moving company owner... and on and on... Not only does she support locals, but she builds rapport, and we get to see the best of everyone she touches, interacting as a team..... It matters not the continent or the language spoken... Truly incredible, in my view!

    I have been watching some of the previous videos during this hiatus and just had a great laugh while watching a live stream from December 2019. Itchy Boots was answering a question about how fast does she rides and mentions that she doesn't ever expect to go blasting down a dirt road at 80 or 90 kph. Of course I flashed back (forward) to her spending a bit of time plucking out cactus thorns after crashing in her Baja Rally! To her credit she does state later in the video, " Well you never know whats going to happen"
    She brightens my days and is an antidote to all the doom and gloom.

    What an amazing rebuild from being gutted and completely refinished! Kudos to your mechanic team in Alaska! Your bike, Alaska, looks good as new, even better with the upgrades and enhancements. Alaska's new muffler is the bomb! Great to hear you feel comfortable and love the ride you're getting, but the slightly higher rise may take getting used to on rougher terrain, as you are such an able and skilled rider, that won't be an issue. I can't wait to see you continue your adventures, explorations, and discoveries by putting yourself through natural and inner character tests beyond even what you may expect. I am kept in suspense about where Alaska is being shipped to... what lucky continent is next? Will it be the Australian outback to continue your Baja rally experience? Asia? Africa? You've done the western hemisphere, so there's still lots of world left for you to conquer on Alaska! As usual, I wish you God's blessings, great luck, and godspeed Noraly Itchy Boots!

    I wonder if Noraly will ever consider doing a tour of the United States. There are so many places I'm sure she would be amazed to see or experience the ride. Seeing things like Crater Lake in Oregon or riding around Mt.Rainier Washington would be really cool for her. And let's not forget the "Ape Caves" lava tubes in Washington state where one can walk maybe 3 miles underground inside them!

      She's going to take some heat no matter what she does but, in this case, she absolutely did the right thing. Considering what that motorcycle is going to do and where it's going to do it, it makes perfect sense to go through it after it has some run time to see what problems could be brewing. I don't think most riders have any clue as to how common it is for the people that know to go through something just to see how it is.

Great job, and I look forward to your next adventures.

But Norely always surprises. 😊 Having a bit of a giggle at some of the comments here - just remember that Alaska does not have anywhere near the fuel consumption of a 4WD and in some remote outback areas fuel is available at some Cattle Stations and Aboriginal Reserves. Have a look at Mongrel Dog Productions. Outback BMW riding.
