This brought back so many memoires for me. Those old forest service roads are what I learned to ride on back in the early 1970's. It was those kind of places that I took my departed wife before we where married. She had never ridden a motorcycle before and half way to the destination she was so mad at me she took off her helmet and slammed it into my stomach as hard as she could. I managed to talk her into continuing on and when we got to the place I wanted to show her she was so happy that she was in tears of joy. I think that is what sealed our relationship. She died of cancer in 2011. She loved the forests and the trees they where her spiritual happy place.
@@ka509 your a lot late with your advice LOL The truth is she was the best thing to ever happen to me. If she had lived we would have been on the road exploring.
Don't thing that God helps out? Just watch how many times Noraly has been saved in difficult situations. She long past luck. The Prayers of faithful people.
Roger, the whimsical motorcycle riding, chainsaw carrying, "Idaho Angel ". This is what it's all about. Connecting with kind strangers along the way! :)
I've ridden more than my share of trails; forestry roads and timber access trails and I can honestly say I have NEVER ever encountered another motorcycle rider carrying a chainsaw strapped to his bike. One day, hell maybe one hour earlier and you'd have been turning back. You walk between raindrops Noraly. I guess it's the reason you've made it this far. You're a talented rider all right but you have the most mind-bending good luck of anyone I know.
Many ORV riders carry a cable handsaw, basically a rough wire with handles on the ends. It gets you thru the small fallen trees, obviously would take a while on the bigger ones.
The absolute truth!! Every mother watching this dear girl riding is so relieved when she makes her way through ---- every time !!! Onwards, Noraly. We are all growing with you!
I ride my quad on a lot of F/S trails, and I always carry my chainsaw. Trees fall down every month of the year. Turning around on a narrow trail with a quad is difficult, if not impossible.
If there is one thing that I have learnt during my long life, it is to never, ever, underestimate the kindness of strangers ... bravo for all of the Rodgers of this world ... long may you all prosper ...
Imagine being Rodger & coming across Noraly on the trail ! He probably never thought he'd have a better story to tell than the one about almost getting killed clearing the trail , God bless guys like you Rodger and keep all of us safe..........
That was a lucky break running into Rodger.That could have been tricky by yourself. Thanks for the trail maintenance Rodger, I’m sure it saved Noraly and any other bikers who were trying to ride there a lot of time.
@@MrJx4000 so you are suggesting she has a production team scouting her route and interweaving staged coincidences and anchoring characters to support her US audience demographic..mmm. I keep wondering why there are no bears patrolling those roads at the end of summer - as a chainsaw would scare the bejeebers out of them. The Truman Show conspiracy group. Okay. Nice to meet you.
The kindness of the people who are far from the big cities is beautiful, there is no stress and there is patience for everyone. What a beautiful world ....😊👍👍👍
Love those animals freely roaming around the forest of Idaho. Just love America's conservation of its natural resources. And thanks to Mr Rodger for being such a kind and helpful and dedicated Forest Ranger. Praise God for all His beautiful creation around America.
I have visions of a mysterious old Dutch lady, living in the backwoods of Idaho in a shack with power generated from an aging Honda four-stroke (gasoline - - remember that?) motorcycle, talking about MapsMe, Garmin, and “all those darn unmarked roads.”
Noraly, that library in Bovill WAS a church! It was St. Joseph Catholic Church for many years. My brother and I were confirmed there in 1963. What a thrill to see it show up in your video.
Noraly always encounter a good person to help her out of trouble. This shows that being kind to everyone has a reward in the end.Good things happen to good people.I wouldn't be surprised if some of the people she met along her journey are not of worldly nature some of them might be Angels sent by God.
Kudos to your editing Noraly . The effort and time having to go thru several camera angles then stitching the segments together to make one seamless , cohesive vlog ; the appreciation sometimes gets lost because the end product is so griping , fluid , entertaining , educational , and inspiring .
You're definitely living right, as guardian angels appear when you need them. Thanks to Roger, our adventure heroine didn't need to backtrack on this day. Beautiful scenery in the mountain forests! Between the creek, waterfalls & some great sweeping mountain views where breaks in the trees occurred, it was a gorgeous ride. Continued safe travels, and may the wind always be at your back!
This certainly reminds me of riding logging roads and fire roads in the early 70’s when I first started riding off-road. How fortunate you were that Rodger had been doing trail maintenance. He was certainly an angel in disguise! There are good people all over the world and Noraly has been able to show us that is true in every country. Ride safe Noraly!
You must think, she is living the dream. Her dream! It's amazing to watch, her strength, her courage, her confidence. This is frankly just one amazing woman!
Rodger was an Angel, came down to help Noraly when she needed it. He is a dedicated public and nature servant. God bless Mr Rodger, and Noraly too for bringing us closer to Mother Nature and all its wonders.
Such a gorgeous forest ride makes me want to get a bike now too!! Haha ... Roger seems like an earth angel, quietly doing his thing taking good care of this 'secret' creek track - bless his kind heart! 💚🌲🌳

I am from EU, not American, but when I see something like this video, I have to say it brings me back to basics. When I think US, I never think about immense natural beauty of remote places. I am sure, video like this will bring that beauty to Americans living in big cities. I work a lot with/for people from US, I know how kind majority of them are, as we have Rodger representing that here. For the first time I feel relaxed following your adventures, feeling that people are going to help. Just stay alert going north, there is some real wildlife on your way.
Just when I thought, 'that track looks actually quite recent', mountain man Roger appears out of nowhere on his bike with a chainsaw. Saved the day, too. Good on ya, mate, well done maintaining that road.
Those of us who live around forest roads generally always carry a chainsaw when driving the back country. You never know if you can get back home after you've driven to town for groceries. Your a lucky lady to cross paths with this man.
I had a little bit of experience with situations like that in the past. I know some places within a days drive of where I live where there are some beautiful camping spots but I won’t go in there for an overnight trip unless I have a chainsaw with me in the vehicle.
I lived in Cataldo, ID area. We always carried a chainsaw in our cars/trucks. I kinda hoped that Noraly would come down into Wallace past the home with what looked like a flying saucdr on top and all the Disney character signs (if it is till there). This would havebeenin the 1980's. I would have loved to see her reactions to that sight.
I just found your channel the other day. What you are doing is amazing. Thank you for letting me ride again. Hurt my back a few years ago and had to sell my bikes. Amazing channel.
Welcome to the Noraly fan club 👍 Like yourself I have had to give up riding due to a back injury and advancing years, but I still get to follow Noraly on her adventures. I found her near the beginning of her travels in India and have been with her all the way since. I envy you the chance you have to follow her past journeys for the first time. She is phenomenal, a wonderful inspiration and advert for motorcyclists everywhere.
You have shown me the most scenery in America. I've lived here all my life and not seen this country like you have. I'm jealous of you but I love ❤️ what your doing. The views are beautiful.
Thank you for showing the beauty of The United States of America , and the kindness of the people . The MSM always focuses on the negative of countries to sell stories.
Again, thank you Noralee, for showing a completely different USA, with so many friendly, helpfu, and loving people, never forgetting the fantabulistic landscape! Safe travels, hou so aan!
"I feel like if there is going to be a zombie apocalypses, it's going to be here," My goodness I can't wait to see the next episode! I was nervous watching you navigate all those logs. You came across a mountain man! How lucky for you and he got to meet Noraly! I wonder if has internet? Won't he be surprised... Safe travels Noraly...
Steamy dark forests. remote places. The howling of unseen and unknown creatures. 'The Totem', by David Morell, and something like wise creepy by Stephen King.
I grew up in Vermont USA. I had relatives in Boston. Vermont and New Hampshire.sit side by side with only the Connecticut river, not too big, separating them. The trip from my town to Boston passes through about an equal distance in Vermont and New Hampshire. Even in grade school, I marveled at the difference in land use by the people in Vermont compared to the land use by the people in New Hampshire. In Vermont, over centuries the forests of the hills were freckled with pastures and farms and homesteads cleared, built,.and in the cycles of time often abandoned. Yet the Connecticut River was like some mystical barrier from the Twilight Zone. When passing through it and entering New Hampshire, the forests of the hills were mostly pristine and uncut surrounding the small villages that were comfortable and well presented. Throughout these same few centuries, the local people appeared to prefer keeping their activity close to the village square. As I contemplated this, my thoughts were that most of Vermont was settled by the Catholic French and English who came down from Quebec and like to move out and cut a piece of their own land while the people of New Hampshire were the Puritans from Boston who liked to keep their activity near their village. Three of my grandparents were born in Quebec near the Richelieu River. The ancestors of my fourth grandparent arrived on the Mayflower. (That was, of course, after the most tolerant Dutch finally could no longer endure the tribulations of the Puritans and forced them to return to their mother country of England. The English promptly suggested they find a new home in the new lands across the great Atlantic. And this is what they did on the Mayflower. I could go on with a more extended history, but it is a troublesome tale.) I tell this tale because it might reflect on the difference you are finding in places in the US where the back roads are fairly used from places where the back roads get used very little.
Noraly, I am amazed at your motivation to ride alone through mostly Jung’s routes with hardly any population. You have been doing it for year and showing us incredible and our of the box locations. We are happy. What ever inspires you, we wish it never ends. Good luck
Thank you, Roger, you are the reason why we love small town. Noraly, seem like wherever you go there's guardian angel follow you everywhere. Again, its awesome adventure.
What a quotable episode.... "Yeehaa!" Noraly picking up the old West lingo!. And more, "If this isn't adventure riding, I don't know what is!". Not to mention, " Like a Boss!" and "If there's going to be a Zombie Apocalypse, it's going to be here!" Those made my morning, thanks. Happy Trails... "Yeehaa!"
Of all the places you’ve been, I would have NEVER guessed that Idaho would give you navigation challenges 😅 Thank goodness you’re a world-class navigator! Great riding, Noraly!
Oh my goodness Noraly, you know that I’m starting to believe in angels again. No kidding they are everywhere you go!!!! I remember in Africa, man was just watching animals, you needed gas? He was there! Here’s ROGER, chain saw and all! You are a blessed VERY STRONG WOMAN!!!! I feel blessed following you! After you go to Alaska? Go West to East in Canada! U tubers will help you every inch of the way. This was a great ride! Lordy! ❤️👍👍🥸👍👍
It's seems every time you're in a tough spot in the middle of no where a benevolent person just appears and gives a helping hand. You definitely have an angel on your shoulder.
@@Rat-Builder I was going back through those videos. You are correct. However, I can't imagine she is doing any of this without a back-up plan and contacts ahead of time. I would put money down that she carries an emergency transponder and a SAT phone. She is not a stupid woman.
@@user-qr8ki8ue4i I am sure that she carries a Personal Locater Beacon. The Sat phone is also probably correct. 99% of my dirt bike, and quad riding I do alone. I have always been that way. I do carry a PLB, but I have to be able to activate it. LOL So, if I am unconscious, all bets are off. I do not think that she has people following her. Remember when she hurt her ankle? She made a call to Ed to come and help her out. I am sure that she has acquired a huge list of friends during her adventures, and those friends would most likely drop everything to help her out, I know I would.
Hi Noraly what beautiful Country awesome tree’s love tagging along with get new places what blessings also for young gentle man helping us save day and always you be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸
What an amazing ride again. Love reading the comments as well there are some amazing people out there watching your videos. I am inspired by your journey and by the people's stories. Love to all.
Das erinnert mich sehr an Fahrten in meiner Jugend mit meiner DT175. Heutzutage fasst unmöglich mit einer Enduro in Deutschland über Waldwege zu fahren. Alle gesperrt, erst recht in Nationalparks! Reisen mit dem Motorrad ist die intensivste Art andere Länder und Menschen kennen zu lernen. Ich liebe diesen Kanal und Noraly‘s Bilder und Erklärungen.
Wow. Every ride is an amazing adventure. Some marvel at the technical challenges, others at the route planning. For me, the biggest challenge is wrapping my head around life on the road. Continuously. For months and months. Alone. Adapting to that would be impossible for me. I'm grateful that you're sharing your experience Noraly. An experience that seems to exist more in a fantasy than any sort of reality I'm familiar with. Bravo!
Thank you Roger for saving Noraly's ride! That was a pretty big drop. The forest there is really amazing. Nicely done. Noraly, this has to be one of your top 10 sketchy passages. Great ride and nice to hear your conversation with Roger. Northern Idaho is very cool!
This is one of best feel good videos yet. This is why we ride. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Amazing. People just out doing good deeds with nobody that will thank them. Cheers to ROGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got another Yee Haw moment! Rodger on the rescue when needed. He must’ve been shocked to see a Dutch blonde riding through his old pass. Probably made his day. Great ride!
You are truly BLESSED - another guardian angel on a Honda with a Stihl to part the seas ..i really really liked this episode .. thank you Roger .. thank you Noraly .. this is a keeper !!!
I am constantly impressed by your resilience in the face of obstacles! You and your Honda are truly world ambassadors of friendship and perseverance!!!
I love how you do minimum planning, stay close to nature and off the beaten track! When things get difficult along comes a wonderful person and saves the day! This is undoubtedly the best way to travel and truly experience the beauty of the natural world around us and the joy of meeting helpful, humble people who will always reach out to help a stranger. You are showing us the best of our world Noraly.
Noraly definitely reflected shades of the following verses -- "Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshia 1:9) "...because he cares for [her] (1 Peter 5:7 b) 🎚🇺🇸
@10:30 "oh there's a deer with a baby!! Look, look, look,...." Deer..." There's a human!! Look, look, look..."😂 Bless you Roger!! You're quite the daredevil but a chivalrous daredevel!! Thank you for rescuing Noraly and thank you Noraly ❤
I think that Noralee is actually single handedly changing the worlds perception of the variety in the environment that is available across the U.S.A. as many think it is just one city after the other. They really have not realized that even with the country's population that there are still tons of rural and forested lands available to explore and enjoy.
Who are these people and how can they be so stupid? Are they the same people who were "shocked" that Mexico had a "lot of mountains and scenery" a few episodes back?
The majority of America is land but this world with social media and technology is so disconnected from reality. I say the same about California, when most people think about CA, they think of the coast and Los Angeles and San Francisco but in reality, CA is mostly land and CA has the most national parks in the entire country.
I still marvel at the beauty of our country in the NW! Glad you took this route! The kindness of some has truly blessed our journey. Lovely to see you enjoying your rides, thank you!
Once again the yeehaw ride gets really fun. Trail riding class was used once again for the obstacle course. Your guardian angel sent Roger just in time, it looked like. Thanks to Roger for clearing the way! Northern Idaho has made for some cool Noraly riding. Great video! You are a pro at filming while in peril!
I can't help but think, "Thank God!" Noraly has been provided for yet again! She gives little hint to having any faith in the Creator/Savior, (though she exudes the kind of joy that I find typical of believers!) but I wonder how long a person can attribute so much provision and so many rescues to just luck. But I love her adventures and her joy of living, and I give thanks for her and all that is provided for her. I sometimes pray for her safety. (haters, please try to just scroll on. thanks. May you have good "fortune"! Really!)
Thank you Roger for being there to help Noraly. Thanks also for sharing your stories from your trail rides. Noraly does such an excellent job presenting the majestic scenery, local culture, and beautiful people that help her on her way.
Again, kindness rules the day! I'm thankful that people here in the states are being so kind and helpful to you! Love this series!!! thank you. Safe travels!
I have to admit, I had some doubts about your Honda making it. Well you've proven that, so far, it's more than up to the task! A worthy and trusty mount you have, Noraly. Well chosen. Fortune smiled on you: lone guys with a chainsaw on a deserted dirt road... and he turned out to be a member of road rescue! ;-)
Every once in a while, a content provider comes along with such great content, i start bracing myself for when it ends. I will actually feel sad when they are done. Like i am never going to experience this quality of content again. Itchy boots is one of those providers.
I thought your travels in America headed to Alaska was going end up predominantly paved roads. Not knowing this part of the country offered the long unpaved travels throughout most of your trip. It’s enlightening and wonderful to see!
When I heard "forest service", I remember they try to make all roads 'thru ways' somewhere - always two entrances/exits. Logging roads are the opposite and I watch out for a lot of tree stumps OR tied-off bandana markers. I hadn't thought about "county" but with forest service being degraded several years ago, I can see how even county access would be better.
The distances are large and the population relatively small. It is too expensive to justify paving a whole lot of them. Mostly interstate freeways and highways are paved. So you can certainly get to most places on paved roads, but there are lots of dirt roads to fill in all the places between. She doesn't show many of the road miles, but there are plenty.
Beautiful riding with you. All the adventure, friends, angels, it never ends, we just love going along with you. Blessings and safe passage everywhere. Pura Vida! 🇨🇷 🇳🇱
When you had breakfast in Elk River the cafe was originally “Morris Drug” store. When my father was a young kid on his way to school he used to stop at Morris Drug Store to build the fire in the furnace. When you went through Bovill, the Elk Saloon used to be the town Bank. The new owners of the saloon converted the huge safe into a refrigerator to keep the beer cold. It is the only local weekend night spot in that area. Happy trails Noraly, another great video…..
Every time you face such obstacles my heart jump up like I was with you , I feel relief once you find way out , I always believe you would make it, great brave Adventurer You are Noraly 👋👍
The old breed like Roger are the people that made the USA the greatest place ever, my dad used to be like him. Just humble and helpful in every way type people....I think the Quiet Generation that raised us Gen Xers had a lot of men like that...

I lived in Cataldo, ID area. We always carried a chainsaw in our cars/trucks. I kinda hoped that Noraly would come down into Wallace past the home with what looked like a flying saucdr on top and all the Disney character signs (if it is till there). This would havebeenin the 1980's. I would have loved to see her reactions to that sight.
I just found your channel the other day. What you are doing is amazing. Thank you for letting me ride again. Hurt my back a few years ago and had to sell my bikes. Amazing channel.
Welcome to the Noraly fan club 👍 Like yourself I have had to give up riding due to a back injury and advancing years, but I still get to follow Noraly on her adventures. I found her near the beginning of her travels in India and have been with her all the way since. I envy you the chance you have to follow her past journeys for the first time. She is phenomenal, a wonderful inspiration and advert for motorcyclists everywhere.
You have shown me the most scenery in America. I've lived here all my life and not seen this country like you have. I'm jealous of you but I love ❤️ what your doing. The views are beautiful.
These are the roads I learned to ride on. You're taking me back to my youth, woman. ❤ Thanks.
Thank you for showing the beauty of The United States of America , and the kindness of the people . The MSM always focuses on the negative of countries to sell stories.
Again, thank you Noralee, for showing a completely different USA, with so many friendly, helpfu, and loving people, never forgetting the fantabulistic landscape! Safe travels, hou so aan!
Well said Ingo .

My goodness I can't wait to see the next episode! I was nervous watching you navigate all those logs. You came across a mountain man! How lucky for you and he got to meet Noraly! I wonder if has internet? Won't he be surprised...
Safe travels Noraly...

I grew up in Vermont USA. I had relatives in Boston. Vermont and New Hampshire.sit side by side with only the Connecticut river, not too big, separating them. The trip from my town to Boston passes through about an equal distance in Vermont and New Hampshire. Even in grade school, I marveled at the difference in land use by the people in Vermont compared to the land use by the people in New Hampshire.
In Vermont, over centuries the forests of the hills were freckled with pastures and farms and homesteads cleared, built,.and in the cycles of time often abandoned. Yet the Connecticut River was like some mystical barrier from the Twilight Zone. When passing through it and entering New Hampshire, the forests of the hills were mostly pristine and uncut surrounding the small villages that were comfortable and well presented. Throughout these same few centuries, the local people appeared to prefer keeping their activity close to the village square. As I contemplated this, my thoughts were that most of Vermont was settled by the Catholic French and English who came down from Quebec and like to move out and cut a piece of their own land while the people of New Hampshire were the Puritans from Boston who liked to keep their activity near their village.
Three of my grandparents were born in Quebec near the Richelieu River. The ancestors of my fourth grandparent arrived on the Mayflower. (That was, of course, after the most tolerant Dutch finally could no longer endure the tribulations of the Puritans and forced them to return to their mother country of England. The English promptly suggested they find a new home in the new lands across the great Atlantic. And this is what they did on the Mayflower. I could go on with a more extended history, but it is a troublesome tale.)
I tell this tale because it might reflect on the difference you are finding in places in the US where the back roads are fairly used from places where the back roads get used very little.

Thanks, Roger. It’s people like you that make the world better.
Noraly, you awesome adventurer!
Well Done!
Three Cheers for Roger--That dude's the Man!!!
Good people are everywhere. Just takes a good heart to find them.
Noraly, I am amazed at your motivation to ride alone through mostly Jung’s routes with hardly any population. You have been doing it for year and showing us incredible and our of the box locations. We are happy. What ever inspires you, we wish it never ends. Good luck
Thank you, Roger, you are the reason why we love small town.
Noraly, seem like wherever you go there's guardian angel follow you everywhere. Again, its awesome adventure.
Roger👍👍👍не is the man!!!
What a quotable episode.... "Yeehaa!" Noraly picking up the old West lingo!. And more, "If this isn't adventure riding, I don't know what is!". Not to mention, " Like a Boss!" and "If there's going to be a Zombie Apocalypse, it's going to be here!"
Those made my morning, thanks. Happy Trails... "Yeehaa!"
🤠🤠🤠
Of all the places you’ve been, I would have NEVER guessed that Idaho would give you navigation challenges 😅 Thank goodness you’re a world-class navigator! Great riding, Noraly!
The Tour of Idaho is one of the hardest motorcycle rides in north anerica
North Idaho mountains are incredibly challenging to navigate, logging roads get put in all the time.Some areas it's like an uncharted maze
@@sippyface4888very popular for bike trips as well.....we have all sorts of bike traffic where I live on the Clearwater during the season.
I was in place like this with a tractor trailer once. I would say, it's less than fun. :)))
Oh my goodness Noraly, you know that I’m starting to believe in angels again. No kidding they are everywhere you go!!!! I remember in Africa, man was just watching animals, you needed gas? He was there! Here’s ROGER, chain saw and all! You are a blessed VERY STRONG WOMAN!!!! I feel blessed following you! After you go to Alaska? Go West to East in Canada! U tubers will help you every inch of the way. This was a great ride! Lordy! ❤️👍👍🥸👍👍
Looks like you have found an America that many Americans don’t know exists 👍🏽
Shhhh. 😅
@@mediocreman2 my thoughts exactly 😆
Oh… we know it’s there, it’s just secluded country. In many ways, like a lot of other areas in the USA 🇺🇸!
Rodger, Stihl crazy after all these years. Respect.
He definitely was an angel!! Coming at the exact time you need to go through!! Bless him!
Todos los amigos de Noraly,,le da su BENDICIÓN,
Roger is like all us Old Timers, we cannot hear all that well but he is a Trooper and then some!!!
It's seems every time you're in a tough spot in the middle of no where a benevolent person just appears and gives a helping hand. You definitely have an angel on your shoulder.
I've been thinking the same since Season 1
Isn't it interesting how that always seems to happen....? Hmmmmm.
@@user-qr8ki8ue4i There was no angel when she was stuck in that mug pit, or on those rocky steep uphills.
@@Rat-Builder I was going back through those videos. You are correct. However, I can't imagine she is doing any of this without a back-up plan and contacts ahead of time. I would put money down that she carries an emergency transponder and a SAT phone. She is not a stupid woman.
@@user-qr8ki8ue4i I am sure that she carries a Personal Locater Beacon. The Sat phone is also probably correct. 99% of my dirt bike, and quad riding I do alone. I have always been that way. I do carry a PLB, but I have to be able to activate it. LOL So, if I am unconscious, all bets are off. I do not think that she has people following her. Remember when she hurt her ankle? She made a call to Ed to come and help her out. I am sure that she has acquired a huge list of friends during her adventures, and those friends would most likely drop everything to help her out, I know I would.
Roger is a inspiration to me of a similar age. . Riding the trails, sawing through windfalls. What a cool lifestyle!
Hi Noraly what beautiful Country awesome tree’s love tagging along with get new places what blessings also for young gentle man helping us save day and always you be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Almost to Canada!! The welcome mat is out waiting for you! 🇨🇦
Some day some company is going to make a video game of your adventures. This is so cool. Take care and be safe. Hugs from Sweden.
Much love to Roger for being such a nice guy! And thanks Noraly for always not choosing the path of least resistance on your journey! :)
I've watched all your vids, and this one has humor, intrigue, tension, new friendships, great riding, and so much beauty. Never disappointed! Ride on!
What an amazing ride again. Love reading the comments as well there are some amazing people out there watching your videos. I am inspired by your journey and by the people's stories. Love to all.
Das erinnert mich sehr an Fahrten in meiner Jugend mit meiner DT175. Heutzutage fasst unmöglich mit einer Enduro in Deutschland über Waldwege zu fahren. Alle gesperrt, erst recht in Nationalparks! Reisen mit dem Motorrad ist die intensivste Art andere Länder und Menschen kennen zu lernen. Ich liebe diesen Kanal und Noraly‘s Bilder und Erklärungen.
once again, a knight in a Honda👍...it's like the angels are watching over her 😇
you meet the nicest people on a honda
@@jrnmller1551 and the best ones amongst them, on the bestest Honda: the XR!
@@Emily-ou6lq Exactly i own one myself!!!
@@jrnmller1551 Good man!
I just got the Öhlins shock for my 600
Wow. Every ride is an amazing adventure. Some marvel at the technical challenges, others at the route planning. For me, the biggest challenge is wrapping my head around life on the road. Continuously. For months and months. Alone. Adapting to that would be impossible for me. I'm grateful that you're sharing your experience Noraly. An experience that seems to exist more in a fantasy than any sort of reality I'm familiar with.
Bravo!
Thank you Roger for saving Noraly's ride! That was a pretty big drop. The forest there is really amazing. Nicely done. Noraly, this has to be one of your top 10 sketchy passages. Great ride and nice to hear your conversation with Roger. Northern Idaho is very cool!
This is one of best feel good videos yet. This is why we ride. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Amazing. People just out doing good deeds with nobody that will thank them. Cheers to ROGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got another Yee Haw moment! Rodger on the rescue when needed. He must’ve been shocked to see a Dutch blonde riding through his old pass. Probably made his day. Great ride!
You are truly BLESSED - another guardian angel on a Honda with a Stihl to part the seas ..i really really liked this episode .. thank you Roger .. thank you Noraly .. this is a keeper !!!
I am constantly impressed by your resilience in the face of obstacles! You and your Honda are truly world ambassadors of friendship and perseverance!!!
I’m glad you got some help! Thanks for bringing us along!
Your laughter is infectious.
Hearing it seems to make life worthwhile.
I love how you do minimum planning, stay close to nature and off the beaten track! When things get difficult along comes a wonderful person and saves the day! This is undoubtedly the best way to travel and truly experience the beauty of the natural world around us and the joy of meeting helpful, humble people who will always reach out to help a stranger. You are showing us the best of our world Noraly.
Good job! And we all know a Roger out there. Hands helping hands. Blessings!
Yes if we aren't Rogers ourselves , we know of one or many.
Thank goodness for a kind man with a chainsaw in the woods!? ✨😮💨
A line none of us ever thought would be said right? 😂
@@ItchyBoots You're too right Noraly! 🥰✨
Noraly definitely reflected shades of the following verses --
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshia 1:9)
"...because he cares for [her] (1 Peter 5:7 b) 🎚🇺🇸
This channel is so different from everything else on TH-cam. We love your enthusiasm.
That guy Rodger is totally amazing individual , and Noraly as usually everything under control , have safe ride Noraly 😀
@10:30 "oh there's a deer with a baby!! Look, look, look,...."
Deer..." There's a human!! Look, look, look..."😂
Bless you Roger!! You're quite the daredevil but a chivalrous daredevel!! Thank you for rescuing Noraly and thank you Noraly ❤

But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep."

As Charly would say, " the scriptwriter is looking out for you" . What serendipity that your path was cleared for you by Roger!😻
I think that Noralee is actually single handedly changing the worlds perception of the variety in the environment that is available across the U.S.A. as many think it is just one city after the other.
They really have not realized that even with the country's population that there are still tons of rural and forested lands available to explore and enjoy.
Who are these people and how can they be so stupid? Are they the same people who were "shocked" that Mexico had a "lot of mountains and scenery" a few episodes back?
The majority of America is land but this world with social media and technology is so disconnected from reality. I say the same about California, when most people think about CA, they think of the coast and Los Angeles and San Francisco but in reality, CA is mostly land and CA has the most national parks in the entire country.
the anticipation, my heart was racing when you both were passing that narrow edge, another incredible ride through nature and the forest
What a lovely man and fun too xx
I still marvel at the beauty of our country in the NW! Glad you took this route! The kindness of some has truly blessed our journey. Lovely to see you enjoying your rides, thank you!
Once again the yeehaw ride gets really fun. Trail riding class was used once again for the obstacle course. Your guardian angel sent Roger just in time, it looked like. Thanks to Roger for clearing the way! Northern Idaho has made for some cool Noraly riding. Great video! You are a pro at filming while in peril!
Noraly never takes the easy route, it's one of the reasons these vids are so interesting, thanks again Noraly.
Her videos seem to hold an element of surprise. Stay tuned.

I can't help but think, "Thank God!" Noraly has been provided for yet again! She gives little hint to having any faith in the Creator/Savior, (though she exudes the kind of joy that I find typical of believers!) but I wonder how long a person can attribute so much provision and so many rescues to just luck. But I love her adventures and her joy of living, and I give thanks for her and all that is provided for her. I sometimes pray for her safety. (haters, please try to just scroll on. thanks. May you have good "fortune"! Really!)
Kudos to you lady , to show beauty of our land ! I can’t believe my own eyes , what a girl from Nederland was able to find and show to me ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Roger for being there to help Noraly. Thanks also for sharing your stories from your trail rides.
Noraly does such an excellent job presenting the majestic scenery, local culture, and beautiful people that help her on her way.
Again, kindness rules the day! I'm thankful that people here in the states are being so kind and helpful to you! Love this series!!! thank you. Safe travels!
The happy excitement in your voice, just brings a big smile from me. Love your work!

Many times I've seen you saved in complicated situations. You must have a terrific guardian angel.
The ride through the forests today was absolutely magical!
I don't know how you always find the right person at the right time. It must be the kind Karma you have 👍
Rodgers is pure outback. Got the equipment knows how to use it and is happy to help. Carry on Itchy.
I have to admit, I had some doubts about your Honda making it. Well you've proven that, so far, it's more than up to the task! A worthy and trusty mount you have, Noraly. Well chosen.
Fortune smiled on you: lone guys with a chainsaw on a deserted dirt road... and he turned out to be a member of road rescue! ;-)
Every once in a while, a content provider comes along with such great content, i start bracing myself for when it ends. I will actually feel sad when they are done. Like i am never going to experience this quality of content again. Itchy boots is one of those providers.
I thought your travels in America headed to Alaska was going end up predominantly paved roads. Not knowing this part of the country offered the long unpaved travels throughout most of your trip. It’s enlightening and wonderful to see!
The only problem is that many of these roads are just logging roads and not mapped.
When I heard "forest service", I remember they try to make all roads 'thru ways' somewhere - always two entrances/exits. Logging roads are the opposite and I watch out for a lot of tree stumps OR tied-off bandana markers. I hadn't thought about "county" but with forest service being degraded several years ago, I can see how even county access would be better.
Its that way the rest of her trip.
That’s the majority of America though, you could take the paved roads but the majority of America isn’t paved roads
The distances are large and the population relatively small. It is too expensive to justify paving a whole lot of them. Mostly interstate freeways and highways are paved. So you can certainly get to most places on paved roads, but there are lots of dirt roads to fill in all the places between. She doesn't show many of the road miles, but there are plenty.
Beautiful riding with you. All the adventure, friends, angels, it never ends, we just love going along with you. Blessings and safe passage everywhere.
Pura Vida! 🇨🇷 🇳🇱
When you had breakfast in Elk River the cafe was originally “Morris Drug” store. When my father was a young kid on his way to school he used to stop at Morris Drug Store to build the fire in the furnace. When you went through Bovill, the Elk Saloon used to be the town Bank. The new owners of the saloon converted the huge safe into a refrigerator to keep the beer cold. It is the only local weekend night spot in that area. Happy trails Noraly, another great video…..
What a great story. Thanks for telling it. Makes you want to go there.
Every time you face such obstacles my heart jump up like I was with you , I feel relief once you find way out , I always believe you would make it, great brave Adventurer You are Noraly 👋👍
The old breed like Roger are the people that made the USA the greatest place ever, my dad used to be like him. Just humble and helpful in every way type people....I think the Quiet Generation that raised us Gen Xers had a lot of men like that...
