Charley Senawan parallel life jisbis more involve with people ,helping some financially through his journey and both know each other great couple of adventurers
I've always said she's the bravest and the wisest....now on the home stretch, I think she's the gutsiest and most determined. I mean, how many people could/would do this ? Not many. Yes indeed, we are all with her.
No actor or actress ever born can convey a sense of excitement like Ms. Noraly. Noraly's passion, patience and excitement is so remarkable. I'm sad this journe is almost coming to an end but EXCITED what is coming next.
Exactly well said. I have to remember this has not been an exquisite "story" and our Noraly is a human that has needs beyond taking us on her handlebars. What a trip this has been.
Damn, who would have thought that I, a 73 year old retiree, would get tears in my eyes watching a Dutch geologist’s journey drawing to a close. Been watching you since India. Looking forward to the next chapter.
I’ve been watching also since India! Who has Norally touched? I first learned of this accomplished young lady while vacationing in Vietnam. I met an old retired pilot from New Zealand and he was singing her praises! He knew I was a motorcyclist and suggested I check out her V-blogs. I am sure glad I did!
I am 79 years old and had to sell my motorcycle a couple of years ago after major back surgery. I too had tears in my eyes as she expressed that she has a day to go to the end of her journey.
Smart move to start in India. Buy an Indian made motorcycle, female with blonde hair. Easy way to garnish a whole heap of subscribers for your first trip. Smart woman.
I no longer watch television. I no longer read the newspaper. BUT....I would never miss a Noraly episode. Noraly: do you have any idea how many people love to follow your travels?
Watching Noraly finishing her trip feels like watching your loved ones graduate from school. You know that it is an end of an era but at the same time you know there must be some greater things coming in the future.
You have stated the essence of what I was struggling to find the words to convey. I am so proud of her and somehow feel entitled to share in her success as in “we did it!” It’s almost like I was on the back of that bike riding with her as I sat safely ensconced on my couch.
Yes, yes, yes...I completely agree having had that experience. After taking our daughter to college, she said, "well, parents this is it, I will not be coming home after this I am on my own. You guys have done your part now it's my turn". We love our daughter and she loves us but she wanted us to know that she had grown up and was ready to make it on her own". I think maybe she forgot that we were paying for her college experience but alas now years later she has proven to be an independent person. We could not be any more proud of her and well as that same feeling for Noraly as this adventure comes to completion there will be another for us to follow and enjoy...thanks Noraly.
1.45 Million people have travelled to Alaska with you and this is the only way most of them could . It has been a wonderful journey, Thank you so much for taking us along with you ,you are truly amazing . I cannot wait for the next adventure.
@@georgefriesen3001 Can you expand a little on that please? Not looking for an argument, genuinely interested in what a local has to say! I know, being a Londoner, some videos shot in my home town have stuff out of chronological and geographical order etc. Just interested in your observations, cheers.
@@georgefriesen3001 Just asking for clarity, but what don't you buy? I find the history and geography interesting and the filming is pretty high quality, especially the drone work. She does seem to find some spectacular places and views while interacting with the locals. Although I am not a fan of the engine sounds, they have always sounded like CG125's but I am sure there's a reason for that? And it is all for free! That leaves me wondering what your trying to say?
I can’t believe this journey is almost over! I will miss her and Alaska! I’m a 75 yr old grandma and I am so proud of her as if she was my granddaughter! ❤️🇨🇦
I too am 75 years old and a great grandmother (Nana) to seven. I have followed Noraly for a couple of years and of course watched the previous videos. I am sad to see this journey end and very grateful for being able to "ride along" with this amazing young woman.
Helen..you are such a nice Lady🙂 Yours words was so kind to say..thank you my dear Grandma 🧡👍🏻🙏🏻... wish you the best from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🌴 🇸🇦
Am so touched and inspired by your words Ms Helen Reid. I am already old too but this wonderful person in Noraly just drove my age back to motorcycling mood. I don't ride much anymore but everytime i saddle up whether to stroll the road or go to supermarket i think of Noraly and the joy of riding in freedom and fun. May God bless her for doing so great a favor for a slumping slouching oldie like me.
I worked every camp from Dietrich just south of the Brooks Range to Prudhoe from 1975-to 1984 as a laborer building the pipeline. I was very happy to see this place again. Thank you Noraly.
Perhaps you would consider settling down as the world goes into the impeding economic crises and perhaps WW3. I will be in Phuket Thailand. You have an open invitation. Stel het goed og ha det bra pa Norsk.
The man was in short sleeves, yet it is 15 degrees in Idaho in Real Time. How can this be? Also you must have met some of my neighbors from here in the Permian Basin. I would think you had to be some kind of tough to work there. Cold steel would have a new meaning for me. I guess your hand would freeze to a 36.
My first job was camp maintenance at Dietrich Camp in May of 1975. I was 19 years old and 3600 on the “C-list,”when I got the dispatch. What an adventure!!! For all I know, we could have worked together.
@@rodneymacomber6337 Yes, And it is where I became a man. Almost got killed or severely injured a few times, however. Working 7-10s for 9 plus weeks plus at a time was shall I say a grind on the body. Enjoy the future as well.
So very proud of you paying the gentleman at the out-if-gas station a $20 bill instead of $5 !! What an amazing character statement !! Following you on your unique journey has been pure joy !!
Hey everyone, today, when Noraly said, ' This is the last stretch....as she pointed at the map, I felt a sudden pang in my heart and realised sadly that it's finally coming to an end!! I guess this is it then.☹️ But all good things must eventually come to an end...
How many times has she warned us that expectations often lead to disappointment? She did it in this video. As much as she has given, I can only hope she does what is best for her whatever that is.
@@stefanfrankel8157 Bill in Anchorage is supposedly seeking a part to fix the bushings/bearings in the headset and fix the ABS so my impression is that she will make her way back to Anchorage. From there she will likely crate the bike to fly it back to the Netherlands.
@@rgetso , me too. It's sounds like poor me but now what do I do on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday? Foxie Dog has adopted a Hardly A Davidson motorcycle and is only taking adventure pictures for her family. So maybe a little fur dog needs do some adventure riding , if only pretending, to fill the gap of the real Itchy Boot's. 🦊🤗🏍️
What I appreciate the most is that Noraly stays so wonderfully herself in every situation. She is pure, informative, sensitive, humorous, intelligent. She looks like a human ;-). If it rains all the time, she enjoys a few dry minutes. Setback turned into a smile. She is an example of courage and brings out the most beautiful and best in people. There is no end. Yes this road ends, but there will be many more roads to come. Enjoy the ride and the adventure!
Noraly: "Alaska is a mess. I'm a mess and covered with mud. But the good thing is, there's no dust! So it's perfect!" ... What a priceless attitude!!! 😁👍
How do ya know she has'nt already got one, 8169 ? Ya bang on there, whatever. I think the bike was "tailor made" for her, which adds up to sponsorship, anyway.
I'm so grateful to be witness to your Alaskan journey and all your others as well. It's the middle of May 2023 as I'm watching. Yesterday I watched you Gambian video.. amazing all of them. Thank you Noraly ♥️
What an absolute privilege it has been. To anybody else who is following this journey and you know who you are. I am sure you will all join me and saying what a wonderful job . Amazing .
I have no doubt I will cry like a baby all while cheering her final stretch… you are an amazing woman Noraly. You have taught me more about geography and history during your travels than I ever learned in school. I’m sad that this trip is ending but oh so excited to see what happens next ❤
The rain is a metaphor of the tears we have seeing this epic journey coming to a close soon. The mud represents the grit of Noraly as she rode for us to see these amazing places. So many stories to tell, for a lifetime. Thanks, Noraly!
My heart is with you from Ukraine! Thanks for your videos. In our country there is a war for life, and you show life as it should be. Peaceful life with many magnificent journeys and knowledge of the world. I hope to return to my travels on a motorcycle, yacht and plane soon. Thank you and your smile!
Honestly, I very much doubt that her journey ends next time. She is very bright and knows how hard she has worked to get more than a million loyal subscribers. She will plan to do something different to keep us watching her for a while. Our lives would never be the same without her.
Of course. It's possible the next video/ride is the last of THIS season. I thought she might bring us along for the ride back to Anchorage, from where I presume she departed back to Holland. Thought maybe she might try to show us Denali if the weather cooperated since it was obscured on the way up. But it sounds like she just wants to end the season having reached the Arctic Ocean. No doubt she'll take a break. Maybe a long one, as she has between her seasons. But unless she has satiated her wanderlust likely she's already pining to get back out on the road, somewhere else in the world. What's next? Beijing to Amsterdam? Casablanca to Cape Town (doubtful since she's already been to CT)? Cairo to Dar es Salaam? Around Australia/New Zealand? Stay tuned!!
Bitter sweet - can't believe this is your 2nd last video of Season 6 .... NOOOOO! I'm not shy to admit I got tears in my eyes when you showed us your route map, and then said, "almost there Alaska". What an incredible journey! What a legend - Noraly, you are TRULY amazing, and a force to be reckoned with! As a viewer, I'm SOOO proud of your outstanding achievement, courage and determination to reach the Artic Circle no matter what obstacles were thrown your way. PS: I'm looking forward to your plans for Season 7! But, before then, I hope you'll take some much deserved R&R.
I am sure we all share mixed emotions about Noraly's journey ending. Just one more episode of a massive journey of a lifetime. Noraly has traveled much in the style of past Dutch explorers and traders traversing the world seeking their riches. Noraly's riches are those which can be shared with her subscribers and that's discovering the wonders of the world by motorcycle. There is a profound difference experiencing travel a top a motorcycle from riding in a capsule of a car or motorhome. It's the grit of "place" while riding under conditions you can only adapt and continue. Above all, it's the determination and willingness to endure whatever physical or mental challenges confronting Noraly to travel bit by big bit to reach Alaska. Noraly has been candid and convivial throughout this journey making this adventure something that can be shared without regret with so many people from different walks of life. Noraly is just one person, one woman, one traveler on one motorcycle showing us anything is possible... bit by one big bit at a time. As always, brava Noraly and rubberside down!
Naraly is a brave soul and I don't know anyone who has attempted a trek on a motorcycle to such a desolate area of the country. She has guts that most all men wouldn't try it on a motorcycle let alone a 4-wheel drive enclosed truck. She will be so far north is a very cold climate and will a SAT phone work that far north in case she has trouble. I think this is a bad time of the year to do this especially on a motorcycle. From what I've seen, the Honda motorcycles are creating history with Noraly riding them! She's a hell of a brave woman and I hope she accomplishes her goal! For the people who ride motorcycles in warm weather riding in cold weather will eat you alive and the faster you ride the higher the chill factor gets to you. I just hope someone is behind her following her on the journey in case she gets in trouble!
You have expressed so clearly how I feel too. Thank you for putting into words what I suspect all of us feel. Noraly has given us so much happiness and adventure. So many times I have been fearful for her safety yet she continues on…. One awesome human being
@@ezl8002 Yes, I've ridden over mountain passes while it was snowing mixed with rain. I've ridden on rain and wind swept highways in the Winter as well. It is miserable.
@@ezl8002 You realize these videos are about 2 months behind. She has probably been back in the Netherlands for that time already and is lounging in her lazy bouy chair reading these comments 🤣
Thank you Noraly for the joy and excitement that you have brought to the almost 1.5M subscribers and many others. My mother, who is 94 and lives with my wife and I, has looked forward to each episode for the last 2 years and, between episodes, loves to sit and watch past episodes that she has missed. Thank you again for bring us along on your exciting journeys. For showing us how much love and sharing that there is in the world. Take care, be safe, get some rest and looking forward to what you have planned for the future!!
Wow hard to believe only one more ride till the end of this epic journey. I have watched them all. I still think about you riding the river next to Afghanistan, dragging your bike over the Dorian gap on tiny little open boats, the epic landscape of Namibia, Botswana rally, tiny huts in Bolivia, its all a journey , our amazing lives. Thanks for sharing yours Noraly. Rest well, ride swift.
I get so excited when Noraly greets us with her signature: 'Gooood Morning, Internet!' we know we are heading for another day of adventure and no matter what, we will have fun. Thank you, Noraly🥰
I’ve watched almost every vlog since she started inIndia. Instantly a favorite and it’s getting better all the time. I’m glad I get to see all the places that she has been.
10 years ago this past June I made this exact same ride. Solo as well. The scenery still takes my breath away, nothing appears to have changed. Stayed in Wiseman, looks like same lodge. Even the Yukon River Station is still out of gas....lol. Thank you so much for allowing us to ride with you. Stay safe
U R one brave Lady. Only discouvered your channel a few days ago and have slowly started to watch all your years of brave travel. i wish i had just 1% of your braveness, as a younger man in the 1990's my truck broke down on a lonely highway in northern Canada, being a tall but skinny man standing 6ft 10 inches and 140 pounds i guess i looked frightening. the weather was a cool -34c when i walked to a pay phone some 25kms from where my truck was. no one would stop and offer to help and no one would stop and give me a ride so i walked, walked fast with my long legs. Tow truck driver could not believe how far away my broken truck was. That one incident shaped the rest of my life til now. Good luck on all your future life's adventures and thanks for sharing your travels as i will slowly watch everyone.
I can't wait, but at the same time I will be sad it's the end of this journey! What an absolutely epic job you have done with the videos for this amazing trip 🙌🏻
I've put the last few videos of your Patagonia to Alaska trip on hold because I don't want it to end. I can't begin to tell you how much I've appreciated "riding along" with you. I'm so glad you found your way out of the Walmart parking lot 😋
The great thing about the motor bike is that it has kept you in contact with the people and places you visit. When you are on a bike, you are exposed (literally and figuratively) and people can more easily interact with you. When you are in a big overlander you are enclosed, don't sleep in local villages, eat in local restaurants or see people as much. The bike has also taken you on roads that would be inaccessible to large vehicles. The views from your helmet cam put the viewer right on the bike and the narration you provide is about the journey, not your personal life. I know nothing about motorcycles but t his has been a great journey to follow.
I am so stoked that you are so close to reach your goal and get to the Prudhoe bay, in the artic . But at the same time it is a sad feeling, knowing you are about to end this spectacular journey across the entire American continent. But when a door behind is closed it means the a new one it is gonna be fully open , and that indicates new adventures. Can't wait to see what's next. Meanwhile let's wait and see your big smile, and maybe some tears of joy for this final episode. You are one of a kind. 💪
Emotions run high with us viewers as your adventure comes to a close. You have endured so much, seen so much and generously shared it all with us. A very big THANKS TO YOU Noraly!
My friends and I have always said, it’s not the destination, but the journey. It is a bittersweet award watching Noraly’s last few videos on this trip. She is an epic traveler and amazing ambassador of the MC world in that regard! I’ve had serious reservations as to her timing on this trip, but so far it has worked out quite well. Fingers crossed! Onward to Prudhoe Bay!
That brought back some memories. Typical weather. I lived in North Pole for many years and in the 1980s used to drive to Livengood every couple of weeks to hold a bible study with some locals there. On occasion would drive further up the road but only once to the Yukon River where I turned around. To do this on a bike is nuts. I sold my bike when I moved to Alaska.
I’m excited for Noraly that she is going to reach her goal. At the same time there is some sadness when I realize that this amazing journey is nearing the end. Noraly’s enthusiasm and excitement if contagious and time after time she has demonstrated what it means to be compassionate and a good will ambassador . Peace and love ,Noraly. Looking forward to the final push to the Arctic Ocean. Ride safe. Dan. ❤️✌️🏍🇨🇦
Iam a Lecturer from India. I have been following your channel since beginning. We have a lesson about travelling. I gave your example to the students , they liked you very much. You are such a inspiration to me also. Thank you for taking us through your entire journey. ❤❤
Hello Werner 😉, as Stefano Paione says we are near to the end of Noraly's adventure travel but I wait to see what will happen to Alaska, the loyal motorbicycle. I'm waiting for a big Surprise! Don't no why, it is a sensation......
Noraly, your 'This is the last stretch.." comment was like a stab in the heart. I have followed every single one of your ups and downs through this season and honestly I am not ready for it to end. You have been a great inspiration for all us that follow you and your journeys. Carry on my free spirit friend!! Will continue to follow on your next adventure. Take Care. From Aurora, Colorado, USA.
Liked it? LOVED IT :) :) You're amazing and your humble, kind and calm attitude to any and every situation is a testimony to your character and grace. Ride on. Looking forward to the finale of the Dalton Highway
These episodes are something different. First I discovered that Noraly is weatherproof (not like her ABS) and also very resistant to mud. Traveling in these beautiful and desolate places they recharge us with energy, sometimes we do not realize the beauty of our planet. I can only continue to thank Noraly who with her courage and determination leads us to see these wonders!🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍
You are right Noraly! One should always reward those that are kind, and you always do! The man was so kind to offer fuel. What a beautiful backdrop on the Dalton Hwy. The horizon is definitely the last frontier! On another note, my dog always sits quietly and listens to you while I watch your latest episode. He knows your voice! Lol… Thanks for sharing an amazing day in your Alaskan adventures. Ride safe!
I am from Myanmar ,I was watching your videos since starting from India, and never missed every episodes up to now. Now your are nearly accomplish the mission,One thing very clear is luck is aways at your side and that is make you always safe and sound thru ought the incredible journey. Actually it is Mission Impossible.
Thank you for years of teaching, You teach humility, and educate on many subjects, and on top that show that humanity is GOOD still. Bless you, stay well, look forward to your next adventure
Oui, quelle étrange impression. C'est comme la fin d'une époque, le sentiment que le soleil de cette immense équipée passe dans mon dos et n'ira pas plus haut. Merci à qui ? Merci à super Itchy Boots pour toutes ces vidéos, ces semaines, ces mois, ces années à parcourir le monde et partager ces paysages si différents, de l'immensité aérée des plaines, hauts plateaux et montagnes à la profondeur confinée des mines, de la chaleur sèche des déserts africains au froid de la Patagonie ou du cercle polaire Artique à la moiteur de l'équateur. Bravo d'être passée si proche des grands fauves au point de me croire à leurs côtés devant ma télé dans mon salon. Merci d'avoir partagé le hasard des rencontres malgré l'obstacle des langues. Bon vent capitaine pour tes projets personnels.
Yes, the giant oil production tractor trailers pulverize the crush and run gravel to a fine powder. When wet that powder is super slick and soupy, makes a serious film, stuck to the surface of all vehicles chancing a crossing. I know you have great bike skills to succeed on your journeys last leg. Alaskans are amazingly generous about helping each other. It could mean survival and they are intimately aware. May God be with you and bless you. Kentucky
Oh my, never thought I would be sooo emotional over this Noraly and her Bike Alaska...what a journey, a Lady, an adventure to remember. I feel as if I did get to go along, cheer and hope for all good things her way. Just more than amazing, and I have to say, I am so very grateful for Noraly's courage in doing this, even with all obstacles. She is such an example of what perseverance can accomplish. I will miss this SO much. Thank goodness one can go back to review the videos, but hey, will miss the NEW trips each week..sigh. Happy Days to you Noraly...you are one very very special woman! RIDE ON! Keep strong!:) Love ya! LOL TREES< GO AWAY....wanna see !lol
"You should always reward people that are so kind" That's one of the secrets to living large! Bless you, Noraly . . You're a great example of what to do and how to treat people, and it's why we enjoy your journeys so much!
As the season draws to a closure I'm very happy to be apart of the whole journey of season 6 uptill this episode and I'm already excited for the next one. When the season is over while you are planning for the next I will be binge watching all the videos of the previous seasons that I haven't watched.
Neither rain nor sleet nor mucky mud can stop Noraly from her appointed destination. That comparison of mud versus dust was gold. Done with a giggle. 😅
That is 100% correct. Years of outdoor work and play. Fo me . Sweet spot temp in winter. Just below 32 snow not rain. No road spray . On my dirt road. No dust is better.
Wow, what an awesome ride this season has been!!! As writer, producer, film crew and star, you have made it so totally wonderful to experience. The scenery and narration have been well beyond expectations. Watching this one was a lot like sitting on pins and needles trying to absorb without feeling it was coming to an close! Hard to imagine what comes next but it is sure to be another spell binder. And no, these are not overstatements. This series has been best in class in so many ways. Thank you so much for this wonderful ride and all of the behind the scenes efforts to document everything so well.
I don't know about anyone else but riding along with Noraly has been a real joy. I've enjoyed the scenery, the history and geography lessons and personality of this lady. She has truly blessed us.
there is going to be a void on my Monday, Wednesday and Friday routine until Noraly gets back on another adventure. Thank you for an epic Season 6, I have learned so much from South America to the Arctic Ocean.
Alaskan people are so kind! Once again (rain or shine) the scenery is majestic! Your positivity in all conditions is heartwarming. You are amazing Noraly! ❤
It’s another rough journey up ahead, but nothing’s too impossible for these types of people. They sure thrill seekers. We all wish them all the blessings and security in their lives.
Noraly you are truly the Amelia Earhart if Motorcycle Adventure riding. I have been blessed with many hours of riding with you in spirit. May your next adventure take you to places unchartered and off the beaten path. Thank you so very much for sharing this part of your life with us all.
What a journey! Can’t believe it’s almost over. This channel has honestly restored my faith in humanity quite a bit. Will be watching anxiously to see what comes next, even if it’s just Noraly taking a (well deserved) nap. 😄🤟
It is a great ride and many challenges I am sure, neverthless it is a job with an adventure. Many jobs are repetitive for most people and routine, this one is the opposite, challenging, adventurous, fun, surprising, most of the time exciting, and has a purpose that pays itself through the UA-cam channel. If there was no UA-cam that would have been a different story. People have done journeys in the past by receiving financial help and advertising. Today UA-cam covers it all as long as you put in the effort and the long days. Still it is rewarding and entertaining that is why travel has become very popular through all the gadgets and the media, added with peoples creativity. Cheers.
Unglaublich, nach 37 Jahren Motorrad, davon seit 1994 ohne Auto, manchmal im Eisregen, Hagel oder Wolkenbruch kann ich mir vorstellen, wie hart so eine Etappe ist und ich bin voller Bewunderung. Wie kann man unter diesen Bedingungen so lange Strecken (eine Zeitfrage!) fahren und so positiv und fröhlich bleiben? Voller Bewunderung und Respekt für eine große Frau! 🏆🏆🏆
Da kann man nur zustimmen. Noraly ist talentiert, versiert, mutig, couragiert und immer ruhig, postiv gestimmt, selbst in schwierigsten Situationen. Ich begleite sie seit Indien, eine Ehre, und hoffe, dass sie nach einer Pause ein neues Abenteuer beginnt. Ihr ein ganz herzliches Dankeschön für so viele schöne Stunden!
What a sense of accomplishment you must be feeling! An amazing journey coming to and end. You must be experiencing a variety of emotions and we are lucky to be able to share them with you. THANK YOU!
Oh no! What am I going to do without Noraly to keep me company on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings before work? Noraly, your adventures have inspired me to adventure on my own bike and also to know that my 400cc bike is not too small to get the job done! I hope you have a wonderful break before your next adventure.🇨🇦
Im 69 year old man in S.D rode motor cycles over 50 years the last 15 years I had a diy home built 1100 Goldwing trike until chronic health problems forced me to stop. Never miss your videos, I swear I felt your pain and frustration when you were fighting the elements. When you said, this next video will be my last my heart sank abit. Now you need to contact Honda about sponsoring you to participate in any of the cross country events or any other interests involving a Honda motorcycle. You are for sure one of the more accomplished female enduro riders on the planet. Not much you or any one would need to add to that resume. Hope to see you soon on your next journey.
Hoekstes said it....over a million people are riding though Alaska to Prudhoe Bay with you!! But we are not all wet and muddy. Your attitude is AMAZING!!! We can all learn from you! You Go Girl!!
Noraly is amazing. It's sad to see her Alaskan journey end but she must be feeling triumphant. She reminds me of that Texas saying (yes, I'm Texan) where someone says "you can't do that!" Noraly: "Hold my beer..."
IMHO, Ms Norlay has an exceptional array of skill sets, intelligence and personality. The best is yet to come. In a world engulfed in such turmoil, this young lady is such a beacon of what humanity could be. What a woman!!!
Thank you Itchy Boots. My mother is a continuous follower. You have been followed by her from India to till Aug 15th. She has taken so much memory with her. A great thanks from us.
Leuk om je te volgen en tof dat je nu ook nog deze weg eraan vast plakt. Ik heb dit stuk gefietst, begonnen vanuit deadhorse en ik geloof in 8 dagen in fairbanks, en ik kan me ook herinneren precies hetzelfde weer, regen, natte sneeuw, elke dag doorweekt, alles onder de modder. Mooi herinneringen en een echt avontuur.
Thank you Noraly for taking all of us along on your epic journey. You have shown us so many amazing wonderful places and interesting people. We are all proud of you and look forward to tagging along an your future adventures.
This is the last stretch....... I cannot thank you enough for the ride Noraly!! This has been a tough year for me, and your videos have helped me look beyond the horizon. God bless you mate!!! Looking forward to the next great adventure!!! A huge hug from Honduras!!!!
So very, very proud of you. Not just of your final accomplishments, but perhaps more for your resilience under pressure, and repeatedly showing that human kindness can exchange with equal kindness anywhere in the world. I found your channel at S2E1 and have watched every episode since, and recently finished watching S1 in sequence as well. Thank you for these few years of moto adventure, and looking forward to many more. Stay Strong, Noraly!
What an epic journey this has been with such an epic woman. I nominate Itchy Boots Travel for best youtube channel of the year. Thank you Noraly for all the great content.
you have learned the Alaskan motto of Help thy neighbor in the best sense...you needed gas the truck stop had none and a complete stranger helped you out in your time of need...awesome
While on this ride called "Life", you have to take the good with the bad, smile when you're sad, love what you've got and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from your mistakes, but never regret.
Dear Noralie this can’t be!! What are we all going to do without you and your amazing adventure to make our mundane lives more interesting. I guess you need some home time and then another adventure perhaps? I for one will be signed up in a flash. Thank you again for your courage and indefatigablity.
Noraly, I'm truly hooked by your guts, determination and resolve to endure the challenges, hardship and heartbreaks of a life on the road. But you don't complain or burden anyone with these things. Instead, you seek out the gems to be found each day and acknowledge the people who inspire you to continue this journey. You are special, and one can only hope to fill the world with more souls like yours. Now enjoy the next ride to your goal, you've earned it. ❤
What a truly truly wonderful Lady. It has been a real privilege to have accompany her and Alaska to Alaska. You, Noraly have met some wonderful people on the way. Please stay as nice and patient with others as you are now. Your videos and you are an absolute pleasure to watch. Stay Safe our Friend, it’s been a BLAST!!
I have finally finished watching every single video on your channel and I found myself thinking, wait what? She went where? She did what? Such an impressive, incredible body of work. It's no wonder you have almost 1.5 million subscribers. It is so inspiring, informative and entertaining to watch each and every episode. I can't wait to see what comes next!
Just like everyone else has so beautifully articulated in all the comments below.. I too am feeling such mixed emotions as this season comes to an end. It’s something I can’t explain that a person you’ve never met can bring out these feelings and emotions. It’s been such a joy!!! Noraly it feels like you are my friend!! I’m sure all your fans feel that way! Thank you for all that you do and I wish you much more success and joy into your life!!!
Never has there been so many people on a solo motorcycle journey. What a legend!
So true. I love your comment!
Charley Senawan parallel life jisbis more involve with people ,helping some financially through his journey and both know each other great couple of adventurers
@@elgueracarlos1386 Soy Tribe too, check it out
Well said, cannot think of better words. Cheers!
I've always said she's the bravest and the wisest....now on the home stretch, I think she's the gutsiest and most determined. I mean, how many people could/would do this ? Not many. Yes indeed, we are all with her.
No actor or actress ever born can convey a sense of excitement like Ms. Noraly. Noraly's passion, patience and excitement is so remarkable. I'm sad this journe is almost coming to an end but EXCITED what is coming next.
Because its real Hollywood and the entire MSM is fake
Exactly well said. I have to remember this has not been an exquisite "story" and our Noraly is a human that has needs beyond taking us on her handlebars. What a trip this has been.
Lmao come on
Next... Hmmm... Route 66?
So it's pretty "Precious" to you eh? 😉
Damn, who would have thought that I, a 73 year old retiree, would get tears in my eyes watching a Dutch geologist’s journey drawing to a close. Been watching you since India. Looking forward to the next chapter.
God bless you sir.
Ditto here-except I'm a 67 year old retiree...can't wait until the next journey! Cheers Noraly!!
I’ve been watching also since India! Who has Norally touched? I first learned of this accomplished young lady while vacationing in Vietnam. I met an old retired pilot from New Zealand and he was singing her praises! He knew I was a motorcyclist and suggested I check out her V-blogs. I am sure glad I did!
I am 79 years old and had to sell my motorcycle a couple of years ago after major back surgery. I too had tears in my eyes as she expressed that she has a day to go to the end of her journey.
Smart move to start in India. Buy an Indian made motorcycle, female with blonde hair. Easy way to garnish a whole heap of subscribers for your first trip. Smart woman.
I no longer watch television. I no longer read the newspaper. BUT....I would never miss a Noraly episode. Noraly: do you have any idea how many people love to follow your travels?
I am the same, who needs TV and the papers when there is Noraly? No one 😁
Same
About 1.4 mln😉👍
Same
same here from phillipines
Roger and the GasMan saved her bacon. How does she always find a savior in the middle of nowhere?
A good soul always has angels!!
Watching Noraly finishing her trip feels like watching your loved ones graduate from school. You know that it is an end of an era but at the same time you know there must be some greater things coming in the future.
You have stated the essence of what I was struggling to find the words to convey. I am so proud of her and somehow feel entitled to share in her success as in “we did it!” It’s almost like I was on the back of that bike riding with her as I sat safely ensconced on my couch.
Ditto. Substitute (recliner) for couch. 😎
@@lul3jon So true
Yes, yes, yes...I completely agree having had that experience. After taking our daughter to college, she said, "well, parents this is it, I will not be coming home after this I am on my own. You guys have done your part now it's my turn". We love our daughter and she loves us but she wanted us to know that she had grown up and was ready to make it on her own". I think maybe she forgot that we were paying for her college experience but alas now years later she has proven to be an independent person. We could not be any more proud of her and well as that same feeling for Noraly as this adventure comes to completion there will be another for us to follow and enjoy...thanks Noraly.
I agree
1.45 Million people have travelled to Alaska with you and this is the only way most of them could . It has been a wonderful journey, Thank you so much for taking us along with you ,you are truly amazing . I cannot wait for the next adventure.
@@georgefriesen3001 Can you expand a little on that please? Not looking for an argument, genuinely interested in what a local has to say! I know, being a Londoner, some videos shot in my home town have stuff out of chronological and geographical order etc. Just interested in your observations, cheers.
Well said and totally agree 💯👍🏽
@@georgefriesen3001 , American eh !!! Figures
@@georgefriesen3001 Just asking for clarity, but what don't you buy? I find the history and geography interesting and the filming is pretty high quality, especially the drone work. She does seem to find some spectacular places and views while interacting with the locals. Although I am not a fan of the engine sounds, they have always sounded like CG125's but I am sure there's a reason for that? And it is all for free! That leaves me wondering what your trying to say?
V long time not wach norali
I can’t believe this journey is almost over! I will miss her and Alaska! I’m a 75 yr old grandma and I am so proud of her as if she was my granddaughter! ❤️🇨🇦
I too am 75 years old and a great grandmother (Nana) to seven. I have followed Noraly for a couple of years and of course watched the previous videos. I am sad to see this journey end and very grateful for being able to "ride along" with this amazing young woman.
Helen..you are such a nice Lady🙂
Yours words was so kind to say..thank you my dear Grandma 🧡👍🏻🙏🏻... wish you the best from Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🌴 🇸🇦
Am so touched and inspired by your words Ms Helen Reid. I am already old too but this wonderful person in Noraly just drove my age back to motorcycling mood. I don't ride much anymore but everytime i saddle up whether to stroll the road or go to supermarket i think of Noraly and the joy of riding in freedom and fun. May God bless her for doing so great a favor for a slumping slouching oldie like me.
I worked every camp from Dietrich just south of the Brooks Range to Prudhoe from 1975-to 1984 as a laborer building the pipeline. I was very happy to see this place again. Thank you Noraly.
Perhaps you would consider settling down as the world goes into the impeding economic crises and perhaps WW3. I will be in Phuket Thailand. You have an open invitation. Stel het goed og ha det bra pa Norsk.
The man was in short sleeves, yet it is 15 degrees in Idaho in Real Time. How can this be? Also you must have met some of my neighbors from here in the Permian Basin. I would think you had to be some kind of tough to work there. Cold steel would have a new meaning for me. I guess your hand would freeze to a 36.
My first job was camp maintenance at Dietrich Camp in May of 1975. I was 19 years old and 3600 on the “C-list,”when I got the dispatch. What an adventure!!! For all I know, we could have worked together.
Rick Macomber worked there about same time my brother. Y’all where blessed to have that experience. Enjoy the future too
@@rodneymacomber6337 Yes, And it is where I became a man. Almost got killed or severely injured a few times, however. Working 7-10s for 9 plus weeks plus at a time was shall I say a grind on the body. Enjoy the future as well.
So very proud of you paying the gentleman at the out-if-gas station a $20 bill instead of $5 !! What an amazing character statement !! Following you on your unique journey has been pure joy !!
same here
Seriously .. the least she could do.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Amen 🙏
what a great guy. I think Alaskans know how their environment works and are very helpful to one another too.
I think it is natural. Would have done the same.
Hey everyone, today, when Noraly said, ' This is the last stretch....as she pointed at the map, I felt a sudden pang in my heart and realised sadly that it's finally coming to an end!! I guess this is it then.☹️
But all good things must eventually come to an end...
Anyone know what she's going to do with the bike and how she plans on getting back to the Netherlands?
How many times has she warned us that expectations often lead to disappointment? She did it in this video. As much as she has given, I can only hope she does what is best for her whatever that is.
@@stefanfrankel8157 Bill in Anchorage is supposedly seeking a part to fix the bushings/bearings in the headset and fix the ABS so my impression is that she will make her way back to Anchorage. From there she will likely crate the bike to fly it back to the Netherlands.
@@rqarnold6971 Thanks!
@@rgetso , me too. It's sounds like poor me but now what do I do on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday? Foxie Dog has adopted a Hardly A Davidson motorcycle and is only taking adventure pictures for her family. So maybe a little fur dog needs do some adventure riding , if only pretending, to fill the gap of the real Itchy Boot's. 🦊🤗🏍️
What I appreciate the most is that Noraly stays so wonderfully herself in every situation. She is pure, informative, sensitive, humorous, intelligent. She looks like a human ;-).
If it rains all the time, she enjoys a few dry minutes. Setback turned into a smile. She is an example of courage and brings out the most beautiful and best in people.
There is no end. Yes this road ends, but there will be many more roads to come.
Enjoy the ride and the adventure!
Noraly: "Alaska is a mess. I'm a mess and covered with mud. But the good thing is, there's no dust! So it's perfect!" ... What a priceless attitude!!! 😁👍
This woman should have a massive sponsorship deal from Honda. The best real world advertisement for their motorcycles I've ever seen. Amazing footage.
How do ya know she has'nt already got one, 8169 ? Ya bang on there, whatever. I think the bike was "tailor made" for her, which adds up to sponsorship, anyway.
I'm so grateful to be witness to your Alaskan journey and all your others as well. It's the middle of May 2023 as I'm watching. Yesterday I watched you Gambian video.. amazing all of them. Thank you Noraly ♥️
This series deserves nothing less than an Academy Award for Cinematography, just for Starters. 👍
What an absolute privilege it has been. To anybody else who is following this journey and you know who you are.
I am sure you will all join me and saying what a wonderful job .
Amazing .
I have no doubt I will cry like a baby all while cheering her final stretch… you are an amazing woman Noraly. You have taught me more about geography and history during your travels than I ever learned in school. I’m sad that this trip is ending but oh so excited to see what happens next ❤
The rain is a metaphor of the tears we have seeing this epic journey coming to a close soon. The mud represents the grit of Noraly as she rode for us to see these amazing places. So many stories to tell, for a lifetime. Thanks, Noraly!
My heart is with you from Ukraine! Thanks for your videos. In our country there is a war for life, and you show life as it should be. Peaceful life with many magnificent journeys and knowledge of the world. I hope to return to my travels on a motorcycle, yacht and plane soon. Thank you and your smile!
Canadian here 🇨🇦 u r in my thoughts and prayers daily. 🇺🇦Ukraine will not be defeated !❤👍
Wishing you well.
Our hearts are broken by what is happening in your country these days.
Best Of Luck
Honestly, I very much doubt that her journey ends next time. She is very bright and knows how hard she has worked to get more than a million loyal subscribers. She will plan to do something different to keep us watching her for a while. Our lives would never be the same without her.
She has already planned it. Its just a matter of when and where
Of course. It's possible the next video/ride is the last of THIS season. I thought she might bring us along for the ride back to Anchorage, from where I presume she departed back to Holland. Thought maybe she might try to show us Denali if the weather cooperated since it was obscured on the way up. But it sounds like she just wants to end the season having reached the Arctic Ocean. No doubt she'll take a break. Maybe a long one, as she has between her seasons. But unless she has satiated her wanderlust likely she's already pining to get back out on the road, somewhere else in the world. What's next? Beijing to Amsterdam? Casablanca to Cape Town (doubtful since she's already been to CT)? Cairo to Dar es Salaam? Around Australia/New Zealand? Stay tuned!!
Not sure, but I think Japan is next. Probably island hopping after that. Can't see China right now.
I guess, it will be the Moon. Or Mars? If there were Gas Stations, she certainly would even go to Pluto :-)
@@Roadghost88 Hopefully not southeast Asia or China. Japan would be cool, but Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand would be fun I think.
Bitter sweet - can't believe this is your 2nd last video of Season 6 .... NOOOOO! I'm not shy to admit I got tears in my eyes when you showed us your route map, and then said, "almost there Alaska". What an incredible journey! What a legend - Noraly, you are TRULY amazing, and a force to be reckoned with! As a viewer, I'm SOOO proud of your outstanding achievement, courage and determination to reach the Artic Circle no matter what obstacles were thrown your way.
PS: I'm looking forward to your plans for Season 7! But, before then, I hope you'll take some much deserved R&R.
I agree 100%
Well said 👏
💯
So true and well said.
I am sure we all share mixed emotions about Noraly's journey ending. Just one more episode of a massive journey of a lifetime. Noraly has traveled much in the style of past Dutch explorers and traders traversing the world seeking their riches. Noraly's riches are those which can be shared with her subscribers and that's discovering the wonders of the world by motorcycle. There is a profound difference experiencing travel a top a motorcycle from riding in a capsule of a car or motorhome. It's the grit of "place" while riding under conditions you can only adapt and continue. Above all, it's the determination and willingness to endure whatever physical or mental challenges confronting Noraly to travel bit by big bit to reach Alaska. Noraly has been candid and convivial throughout this journey making this adventure something that can be shared without regret with so many people from different walks of life. Noraly is just one person, one woman, one traveler on one motorcycle showing us anything is possible... bit by one big bit at a time. As always, brava Noraly and rubberside down!
Naraly is a brave soul and I don't know anyone who has attempted a trek on a motorcycle to such a desolate area of the country. She has guts that most all men
wouldn't try it on a motorcycle let alone a 4-wheel drive enclosed truck. She will be so far north is a very cold climate and will a SAT phone work that far north in
case she has trouble. I think this is a bad time of the year to do this especially on a motorcycle. From what I've seen, the Honda motorcycles are creating history
with Noraly riding them! She's a hell of a brave woman and I hope she accomplishes her goal! For the people who ride motorcycles in warm weather riding in cold
weather will eat you alive and the faster you ride the higher the chill factor gets to you. I just hope someone is behind her following her on the journey in case she
gets in trouble!
You have expressed so clearly how I feel too. Thank you for putting into words what I suspect all of us feel. Noraly has given us so much happiness and adventure. So many times I have been fearful for her safety yet she continues on…. One awesome human being
@@ezl8002 Yes, I've ridden over mountain passes while it was snowing mixed with rain. I've ridden on rain and wind swept highways in the Winter as well. It is miserable.
Well said! Thank you.
@@ezl8002 You realize these videos are about 2 months behind. She has probably been back in the Netherlands for that time already and is lounging in her lazy bouy chair reading these comments 🤣
Thank you Noraly for the joy and excitement that you have brought to the almost 1.5M subscribers and many others. My mother, who is 94 and lives with my wife and I, has looked forward to each episode for the last 2 years and, between episodes, loves to sit and watch past episodes that she has missed. Thank you again for bring us along on your exciting journeys. For showing us how much love and sharing that there is in the world. Take care, be safe, get some rest and looking forward to what you have planned for the future!!

Wow hard to believe only one more ride till the end of this epic journey. I have watched them all. I still think about you riding the river next to Afghanistan, dragging your bike over the Dorian gap on tiny little open boats, the epic landscape of Namibia, Botswana rally, tiny huts in Bolivia, its all a journey , our amazing lives. Thanks for sharing yours Noraly. Rest well, ride swift.
I get so excited when Noraly greets us with her signature: 'Gooood Morning, Internet!' we know we are heading for another day of adventure and no matter what, we will have fun. Thank you, Noraly🥰
I’ve watched almost every vlog since she started inIndia. Instantly a favorite and it’s getting better all the time. I’m glad I get to see all the places that she has been.
Agreed friend
You, me, and a million other fans 👍👍👍👍
Absolutely! Arm chair traveller 🙈😂🤩😍
@@bridgetedwardslivelifefully lol cheap way to get around
@@2GringosOnTheGulf 🤣😂🤣 sure is ... and, to see such wonderful places I'd never ever think of visiting! What a bargain 😉👏🙏
No matter the weather, your optimistic attitude is always sunshine. Onwards Noraly! ONWARDS 👍
Yes Noraly if you have not realized it yet you have Become a Legend in your own Time. very few have accomplished this. Congrats. stay safe.
10 years ago this past June I made this exact same ride. Solo as well. The scenery still takes my breath away, nothing appears to have changed. Stayed in Wiseman, looks like same lodge. Even the Yukon River Station is still out of gas....lol. Thank you so much for allowing us to ride with you. Stay safe
Hallo Noraly, genoten van je reis. Bewondering voor wat je ons laat zien.
U R one brave Lady. Only discouvered your channel a few days ago and have slowly started
to watch all your years of brave travel. i wish i had just 1% of your braveness, as a younger
man in the 1990's my truck broke down on a lonely highway in northern Canada, being a tall
but skinny man standing 6ft 10 inches and 140 pounds i guess i looked frightening. the weather was a cool -34c when i walked to a pay phone some 25kms from where my truck was. no one would stop and offer to help and no one would stop and give me a ride so i walked, walked fast with my long legs. Tow truck driver could not believe how far away my broken truck was. That one incident shaped the rest of my life til now. Good luck on all your future life's adventures and thanks for sharing your travels as i will slowly watch everyone.
I can't wait, but at the same time I will be sad it's the end of this journey! What an absolutely epic job you have done with the videos for this amazing trip 🙌🏻
I've put the last few videos of your Patagonia to Alaska trip on hold because I don't want it to end. I can't begin to tell you how much I've appreciated "riding along" with you. I'm so glad you found your way out of the Walmart parking lot 😋
The great thing about the motor bike is that it has kept you in contact with the people and places you visit. When you are on a bike, you are exposed (literally and figuratively) and people can more easily interact with you. When you are in a big overlander you are enclosed, don't sleep in local villages, eat in local restaurants or see people as much. The bike has also taken you on roads that would be inaccessible to large vehicles.
The views from your helmet cam put the viewer right on the bike and the narration you provide is about the journey, not your personal life. I know nothing about motorcycles but t his has been a great journey to follow.
I am so stoked that you are so close to reach your goal and get to the Prudhoe bay, in the artic . But at the same time it is a sad feeling, knowing you are about to end this spectacular journey across the entire American continent. But when a door behind is closed it means the a new one it is gonna be fully open , and that indicates new adventures. Can't wait to see what's next. Meanwhile let's wait and see your big smile, and maybe some tears of joy for this final episode. You are one of a kind. 💪
Not just the "entire North American continent", but the South American continent also!! This woman is a legend in her own time.
Emotions run high with us viewers as your adventure comes to a close. You have endured so much, seen so much and generously shared it all with us. A very big THANKS TO YOU Noraly!
My friends and I have always said, it’s not the destination, but the journey. It is a bittersweet award watching Noraly’s last few videos on this trip.
She is an epic traveler and amazing ambassador of the MC world in that regard!
I’ve had serious reservations as to her timing on this trip, but so far it has worked out quite well. Fingers crossed!
Onward to Prudhoe Bay!
That brought back some memories. Typical weather. I lived in North Pole for many years and in the 1980s used to drive to Livengood every couple of weeks to hold a bible study with some locals there. On occasion would drive further up the road but only once to the Yukon River where I turned around. To do this on a bike is nuts. I sold my bike when I moved to Alaska.
What I admired you the most is you look positively in everything👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I cried. I don't even know you and am so proud of you. You are a mentor to women adventurers. Amazing journey.
Noraly is so wholesome and likable that she attracts the best people and circumstances.
I’m excited for Noraly that she is going to reach her goal. At the same time there is some sadness when I realize that this amazing journey is nearing the end. Noraly’s enthusiasm and excitement if contagious and time after time she has demonstrated what it means to be compassionate and a good will ambassador . Peace and love ,Noraly. Looking forward to the final push to the Arctic Ocean. Ride safe. Dan. ❤️✌️🏍🇨🇦
This lady is proving to us that a small 300cc engine is more than enough to travel the world. Bravo, et bonne route à Noraly !
Iam a Lecturer from India. I have been following your channel since beginning. We have a lesson about travelling. I gave your example to the students , they liked you very much. You are such a inspiration to me also. Thank you for taking us through your entire journey. ❤❤
Enjoyed every second of your trip… 😁“come on Alaska, we’re almost there!”
🇮🇹 Here WE are, folks! Gooood Afternoon, Noraly, Internet, sisters and brothers, let’s goooooo, as usual! 🇮🇹
Siamo quasi arrivati👍👍👍
Hi Stefano😀👍
🇮🇹
Hello Werner 😉, as Stefano Paione says we are near to the end of Noraly's adventure travel but I wait to see what will happen to Alaska, the loyal motorbicycle. I'm waiting for a big Surprise! Don't no why, it is a sensation......
Noraly, your 'This is the last stretch.." comment was like a stab in the heart. I have followed every single one of your ups and downs through this season and honestly I am not ready for it to end. You have been a great inspiration for all us that follow you and your journeys. Carry on my free spirit friend!! Will continue to follow on your next adventure. Take Care. From Aurora, Colorado, USA.
You are almost there Norali
I am very impressed with what you do, that is why you are my inspiration for what I am going to do, travel the world
Thx
From S. Korea. Thank you so much for taking us along with you. Emotions run high with us viewers as your adventure comes to a close.
Liked it? LOVED IT :) :) You're amazing and your humble, kind and calm attitude to any and every situation is a testimony to your character and grace. Ride on. Looking forward to the finale of the Dalton Highway
These episodes are something different. First I discovered that Noraly is weatherproof (not like her ABS) and also very resistant to mud. Traveling in these beautiful and desolate places they recharge us with energy, sometimes we do not realize the beauty of our planet. I can only continue to thank Noraly who with her courage and determination leads us to see these wonders!🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍
You are right Noraly! One should always reward those that are kind, and you always do! The man was so kind to offer fuel. What a beautiful backdrop on the Dalton Hwy. The horizon is definitely the last frontier! On another note, my dog always sits quietly and listens to you while I watch your latest episode. He knows your voice! Lol… Thanks for sharing an amazing day in your Alaskan adventures. Ride safe!
I am from Myanmar ,I was watching your videos since starting from India, and never missed every episodes up to now. Now your are nearly accomplish the mission,One thing very clear is luck is aways at your side and that is make you always safe and sound thru ought the incredible journey.
Actually it is Mission Impossible.
Thank you for years of teaching, You teach humility, and educate on many subjects, and on top that show that humanity is GOOD still. Bless you, stay well, look forward to your next adventure
Oui, quelle étrange impression. C'est comme la fin d'une époque, le sentiment que le soleil de cette immense équipée passe dans mon dos et n'ira pas plus haut. Merci à qui ? Merci à super Itchy Boots pour toutes ces vidéos, ces semaines, ces mois, ces années à parcourir le monde et partager ces paysages si différents, de l'immensité aérée des plaines, hauts plateaux et montagnes à la profondeur confinée des mines, de la chaleur sèche des déserts africains au froid de la Patagonie ou du cercle polaire Artique à la moiteur de l'équateur. Bravo d'être passée si proche des grands fauves au point de me croire à leurs côtés devant ma télé dans mon salon. Merci d'avoir partagé le hasard des rencontres malgré l'obstacle des langues. Bon vent capitaine pour tes projets personnels.
Thank you Noraly for allowing me to live vicariously and be part of your grand adventure!
That's how a true off road bike should look, not fresh off the showroom floor, thank you for the adventures you have shared with us Noraly 👍
Itchy always looking on the bright side of things, riding in the rain all day, at least there's no dust...
Yes, the giant oil production tractor trailers pulverize the crush and run gravel to a fine powder. When wet that powder is super slick and soupy, makes a serious film, stuck to the surface of all vehicles chancing a crossing. I know you have great bike skills to succeed on your journeys last leg. Alaskans are amazingly generous about helping each other. It could mean survival and they are intimately aware. May God be with you and bless you. Kentucky
Oh my, never thought I would be sooo emotional over this Noraly and her Bike Alaska...what a journey, a Lady, an adventure to remember. I feel as if I did get to go along, cheer and hope for all good things her way. Just more than amazing, and I have to say, I am so very grateful for Noraly's courage in doing this, even with all obstacles. She is such an example of what perseverance can accomplish. I will miss this SO much. Thank goodness one can go back to review the videos, but hey, will miss the NEW trips each week..sigh. Happy Days to you Noraly...you are one very very special woman! RIDE ON! Keep strong!:) Love ya! LOL TREES< GO AWAY....wanna see !lol
"You should always reward people that are so kind" That's one of the secrets to living large! Bless you, Noraly . .
You're a great example of what to do and how to treat people, and it's why we enjoy your journeys so much!
She has been an ambassador of goodwill. God bless her soul.
As the season draws to a closure I'm very happy to be apart of the whole journey of season 6 uptill this episode and I'm already excited for the next one.
When the season is over while you are planning for the next I will be binge watching all the videos of the previous seasons that I haven't watched.
Me too.
You’re so lucky … I’ve seen them all 😢 But I am sure there will be a new adventure in the future. At least I hope so 😃
@@BrigittevTien yeah lucky in a sense that I still have episodes to watch and enjoy during the winter vacation.
Total respect with that kind of road, riding solo and with that weather... and hats off to you miss..
Neither rain nor sleet nor mucky mud can stop Noraly from her appointed destination. That comparison of mud versus dust was gold. Done with a giggle. 😅
That is 100% correct. Years of outdoor work and play. Fo me . Sweet spot temp in winter. Just below 32 snow not rain. No road spray . On my dirt road. No dust is better.
Wow, what an awesome ride this season has been!!! As writer, producer, film crew and star, you have made it so totally wonderful to experience. The scenery and narration have been well beyond expectations. Watching this one was a lot like sitting on pins and needles trying to absorb without feeling it was coming to an close! Hard to imagine what comes next but it is sure to be another spell binder. And no, these are not overstatements. This series has been best in class in so many ways. Thank you so much for this wonderful ride and all of the behind the scenes efforts to document everything so well.
I don't know about anyone else but riding along with Noraly has been a real joy. I've enjoyed the scenery, the history and geography lessons and personality of this lady. She has truly blessed us.
I never tire of watching Itchy Boots and feel somewhat deprived if I miss any video.
there is going to be a void on my Monday, Wednesday and Friday routine until Noraly gets back on another adventure. Thank you for an epic Season 6, I have learned so much from South America to the Arctic Ocean.
Alaskan people are so kind! Once again (rain or shine) the scenery is majestic! Your positivity in all conditions is heartwarming. You are amazing Noraly! ❤
It’s another rough journey up ahead, but nothing’s too impossible for these types of people. They sure thrill seekers. We all wish them all the blessings and security in their lives.
And you persevere through all kinds of obstacles because working through them builds character and Noraly has it in spades☺🙂🤗
Thanks itchy boots. For giving me and others this amazing experience.
There is nothing I can add to the comments already written. Just an awesome journey. I am glad I was along for the ride. Bedankt. Jij bent geweldig
Noraly you are truly the Amelia Earhart if Motorcycle Adventure riding. I have been blessed with many hours of riding with you in spirit. May your next adventure take you to places unchartered and off the beaten path. Thank you so very much for sharing this part of your life with us all.
Are you by chance Roger the chainsaw guy from Noraly’s video in the forest of Canada?
@@Pretty_Boomer I am not that Roger however I know that area where Noraly met him. It is where I was born and raised.
Itchy Boots finds the kindest people willing to share a little extra gas in out-of-the-way places. Very cool!
What a journey! Can’t believe it’s almost over. This channel has honestly restored my faith in humanity quite a bit. Will be watching anxiously to see what comes next, even if it’s just Noraly taking a (well deserved) nap. 😄🤟
It is a great ride and many challenges I am sure, neverthless it is a job with an adventure. Many jobs are repetitive for most people and routine, this one is the opposite, challenging, adventurous, fun, surprising, most of the time exciting, and has a purpose that pays itself through the UA-cam channel. If there was no UA-cam that would have been a different story. People have done journeys in the past by receiving financial help and advertising. Today UA-cam covers it all as long as you put in the effort and the long days. Still it is rewarding and entertaining that is why travel has become very popular through all the gadgets and the media, added with peoples creativity. Cheers.
I marvel at your fortitude, your bravery and your cheerfulness.
Unglaublich, nach 37 Jahren Motorrad, davon seit 1994 ohne Auto, manchmal im Eisregen, Hagel oder Wolkenbruch kann ich mir vorstellen, wie hart so eine Etappe ist und ich bin voller Bewunderung. Wie kann man unter diesen Bedingungen so lange Strecken (eine Zeitfrage!) fahren und so positiv und fröhlich bleiben? Voller Bewunderung und Respekt für eine große Frau! 🏆🏆🏆
Da kann man nur zustimmen. Noraly ist talentiert, versiert, mutig, couragiert und
immer ruhig, postiv gestimmt, selbst in schwierigsten Situationen. Ich begleite
sie seit Indien, eine Ehre, und hoffe, dass sie nach einer Pause ein neues Abenteuer beginnt. Ihr ein ganz herzliches Dankeschön für so viele schöne
Stunden!
What a sense of accomplishment you must be feeling! An amazing journey coming to and end. You must be experiencing a variety of emotions and we are lucky to be able to share them with you. THANK YOU!
Oh no! What am I going to do without Noraly to keep me company on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings before work? Noraly, your adventures have inspired me to adventure on my own bike and also to know that my 400cc bike is not too small to get the job done! I hope you have a wonderful break before your next adventure.🇨🇦
Im 69 year old man in S.D rode motor cycles over 50 years the last 15 years I had a diy home built 1100 Goldwing trike until chronic health problems forced me to stop. Never miss your videos, I swear I felt your pain and frustration when you were fighting the elements. When you said, this next video will be my last my heart sank abit. Now you need to contact Honda about sponsoring you to participate in any of the cross country events or any other interests involving a Honda motorcycle. You are for sure one of the more accomplished female enduro riders on the planet. Not much you or any one would need to add to that resume. Hope to see you soon on your next journey.
Hoekstes said it....over a million people are riding though Alaska to Prudhoe Bay with you!! But we are not all wet and muddy. Your attitude is AMAZING!!! We can all learn from you! You Go Girl!!
Noraly is amazing. It's sad to see her Alaskan journey end but she must be feeling triumphant. She reminds me of that Texas saying (yes, I'm Texan) where someone says "you can't do that!"
Noraly: "Hold my beer..."
GREAT work thank you for all your hard work and dedication to excellence
THANK YOU !!!!
IMHO, Ms Norlay has an exceptional array of skill sets, intelligence and personality. The best is yet to come. In a world engulfed in such turmoil, this young lady is such a beacon of what humanity could be. What a woman!!!
Thank you Itchy Boots. My mother is a continuous follower. You have been followed by her from India to till Aug 15th. She has taken so much memory with her. A great thanks from us.
Leuk om je te volgen en tof dat je nu ook nog deze weg eraan vast plakt. Ik heb dit stuk gefietst, begonnen vanuit deadhorse en ik geloof in 8 dagen in fairbanks, en ik kan me ook herinneren precies hetzelfde weer, regen, natte sneeuw, elke dag doorweekt, alles onder de modder. Mooi herinneringen en een echt avontuur.
Thank you Noraly for taking all of us along on your epic journey. You have shown us so many amazing wonderful places and interesting people. We are all proud of you and look forward to tagging along an your future adventures.
This is the last stretch....... I cannot thank you enough for the ride Noraly!! This has been a tough year for me, and your videos have helped me look beyond the horizon. God bless you mate!!! Looking forward to the next great adventure!!! A huge hug from Honduras!!!!
So very, very proud of you. Not just of your final accomplishments, but perhaps more for your resilience under pressure, and repeatedly showing that human kindness can exchange with equal kindness anywhere in the world. I found your channel at S2E1 and have watched every episode since, and recently finished watching S1 in sequence as well. Thank you for these few years of moto adventure, and looking forward to many more. Stay Strong, Noraly!
What an epic journey this has been with such an epic woman. I nominate Itchy Boots Travel for best youtube channel of the year. Thank you Noraly for all the great content.
you have learned the Alaskan motto of Help thy neighbor in the best sense...you needed gas the truck stop had none and a complete stranger helped you out in your time of need...awesome
While on this ride called "Life", you have to take the good with the bad, smile when you're sad, love what you've got and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from your mistakes, but never regret.
I am teary eyed, Itchy Boots. Thank you for the joy your journey brings to this 68year old retiree. Be well. Stay well.
Whole heartily agree with you Allen! I’m 66 and desperately wish I had the guts to do what Noraly did. Instead I live vicariously through her videos!
To this stay at home mom as well 😊
Dear Noralie this can’t be!! What are we all going to do without you and your amazing adventure to make our mundane lives more interesting. I guess you need some home time and then another adventure perhaps? I for one will be signed up in a flash. Thank you again for your courage and indefatigablity.
Noraly, I'm truly hooked by your guts, determination and resolve to endure the challenges, hardship and heartbreaks of a life on the road. But you don't complain or burden anyone with these things. Instead, you seek out the gems to be found each day and acknowledge the people who inspire you to continue this journey. You are special, and one can only hope to fill the world with more souls like yours. Now enjoy the next ride to your goal, you've earned it. ❤
What a truly truly wonderful Lady. It has been a real privilege to have accompany her and Alaska to Alaska. You, Noraly have met some wonderful people on the way. Please stay as nice and patient with others as you are now. Your videos and you are an absolute pleasure to watch. Stay Safe our Friend, it’s been a BLAST!!
❤🎉
I have finally finished watching every single video on your channel and I found myself thinking, wait what? She went where? She did what? Such an impressive, incredible body of work. It's no wonder you have almost 1.5 million subscribers. It is so inspiring, informative and entertaining to watch each and every episode. I can't wait to see what comes next!
Australia and New Zealand? Spectacular places, esp the mountainous North Island of NZ. Great riding places, great new cultures.
🤞🏻
Just like everyone else has so beautifully articulated in all the comments below.. I too am feeling such mixed emotions as this season comes to an end. It’s something I can’t explain that a person you’ve never met can bring out these feelings and emotions. It’s been such a joy!!! Noraly it feels like you are my friend!! I’m sure all your fans feel that way! Thank you for all that you do and I wish you much more success and joy into your life!!!
Forgot to mention the funny comment Itchy Boots made about completing your 10,000 steps while shopping at Walmart!! So witty!
