    Im a rider (both street and dirt) of over 50 yrs. I just turned 71yrs young! Been keeping track of you and your adventures. You riding around the world for 3.5 years without injury is a testimony of your riding skill. Also, I hope other riders take note of why it is so important to wear protective cycle gear, no matter how hot the weather is! One last comment: Now is the time to rest and let your body heal. I've dumped my dirt bikes many times. My biggest mistake was riding before my body was completely healed! Listen to the doctor and let your body completely heal before returning to the road. As we say here in the Northwest 'Keep you knees to the breeze and the rubber side down'. Stay safe Norally!

      Hey Paul, Billy here. I live in Kentucky. You sound closer to her than me . But if she needs something and I can help give me a shout. Like you I'm 69 and started riding in 1969. Your right she needs to heal before moving on. Like I said before. Give me a holler if I can help in any way. Talk to you later. Billy

      Hey Paul and Billy - i am an old fart too and have had my share of wipeouts on bikes and flying machines - the only way to avoid getting injured is to never go out but who wants that ?
      Yet i could crush my hands in the refrigerator door. She's definitely not the stay-at-home type but wish she slowed down a bit .. just a bit ...LOL

    Noraly, I can promise you that you have thousands friends in the US ADV riding community that would come to your aid at the drop of a hat. You put the word out and folks would be happy for you to recouperate at their homes for sure and I know Alaska would be all sorted out as well. You are a legend here. Everwhere I go I hear people talking about following your adventures. Heal quick and ebrace American hospitality.

    As a former off-road rider I took a similar fall. Ten miles away from civilization hit a loose rock that rolled out from under my front tire and bam, I was on the ground. I broke my left wrist and ankle and had to ride myself back. Ohh man manipulating the clutch and shifter with a broken wrist and ankle was miserable to say the least.

      Not all the desserts are that hot. Some, like berry pies for example, are usually served room temperature. And ice cream is at least freezing. Don't scare our Ouchy Boots out of trying those American sweet treats. Now, the deserts... they can be dangerous.

      Ray Jardine a PCT and Appellation trail thru hiker even suggested covering the top of the umbrella with a space blanket. It is reflective and can really lower the heat under the umbrella. Use paper clips to attach it. I have used it and it works really well.

      The crash is a typical Nevada welcome for visitors. This is where folks come to crash, crash their diets, crash their bank accounts, crash their irrational dreams of winning a lot of money, crash their lifestyles by getting married, and crash their lives........our homeless problem is completely out of control. Whatever you have you can pretty much crash it in Las Vegas, Nevada.

    Noraly you nailed it, epic adventures come with epic scars. It was going to happen at some point, the motorcycle law of averages. Whats most important is you are ok and in good spirits. Second most important is you always dress for the fall, this helped a lot especially with your left elbow! I cant see if you hit your head hard, but I would ask Arai to get a new lid to you in case. Hope Alaska wasn't too badly damaged and of course we are relieved it happened without other vehicles involved and you were still able to continue. Hoping for your speedy recovery, I know exactly how it feels after years of crashing! Speedy recovery legend!

      @@Vahlakable Will all due respect, there aren't too many places as remote and deadly hot as the American southwest in late July. People can and do die from exposure within hours without shade or hydration in this climate. I have travelled these areas extensively and I personally know ex special forces guys who almost died on routine trips through some of these backroads. Some of these roads only see a handful of people each week on them this time of year, if at all. If you cannot self rescue or are incapacitated and unable to call for help, assuming it could get to you in time, yes, it is a mortal danger. Every year tourists coming from Las Vegas die in southern Utah and Arizona. I read a book once called Death in the Grand Canyon and it would amaze you how even the smallest mistake can be fatal in these unforgiving environments. There isn't much you can do to prepare for the elements either, and in my experience having a companion through some of these remote and seldom travelled areas can be the difference between life and death. Just my two cents and I do know what I am talking about.

    • @sonnytpangestu
      @sonnytpangestu 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      it was a real steep climb with loose rock and gravel. it may cause lost of traction of the wheel tyre to the track surface and may cause our bike not easy to control and out of balance. we have to open the throtle to gain power to maintain speed momentum in this steep climb which in turn may cause the front wheel off the ground surface. in addition the Noraly's bike burdened such maybe about 30 kg of luggage at the back. all those conditions contribute to make the crash happened. not as simple as that to tackle.
      deflate the air pressure in wheel tyre maybe can help a bit to gain traction & to get better control on bike balance on these steep loose surface.
      an all wheel drive dirtbike maybe ideal for this condition, that may not need big effort to pass this steep climb.
