    At the bike-wash: Noraly says, "I went Loum Yabassi." The man asks, "You were there?" She nods. The man turns and calls out to someone, "She did Loum to Yabassi!" He turns back to Noraly and asks, "With this motorbike here?" Noraly says, "Yeah." Good to see her get the respect she so richly deserves!👍

    Lived in Cameroon from '82-'84 and traveled as much in the bush as we could. No internet, TV, satelite, phones, newspapers, etc., so very remote and cut-off from news and info which was a great experience. Cameroonians were extremely friendly and helpful just as was shown in these videos. Always willing to help, answer questions, etc. Never a bad experience. Makes me a bit homesick and brings back good memories.

    Well done Noraly, a perfect demonstration of how to ride in those difficult conditions. As a former motorcycle "Trials" rider, I can tell that your throttle and clutch control is spot on. It amuses me to read comments saying that she should "Gas" it to get through the mud..! It's obvious that with the deep ruts, and water filled ditches of unknown depth, this would lead to certain disaster. A broken or drowned motorcycle, or worst still a broken Noraly..!

    Well girl. What can I say that hasn’t already been said. You are a true inspiration to all of us lesser mortals. You rise up and face every single challenge that is placed in front of you and come out the other side full of smiles and contagious joyous laughter. You’re one of those rare people whose glass is permanently half full. This stage through Camaroon was ,in my mind at least,the most challenging. You’re triumphant yell when you reached the paved section I had to put my coffee mug down. And you’re appreciation of all of the little luxuries we all take for granted yet still acknowledging that the locals use that route as a daily commute. Even after all this time watching your journey from India through theFar-East then into the Middle East finally back to Europe.you’re humanity still shines through. If ever you fancied a change of scenery,I think you would do well as a motivational speaker.

    The roads are definitely difficult. Without the helpful locals along the way, at times, it seems that it would be nearly impossible! You found a great place to stay with all the nice conveniences that we all take for granted! Thanks for sharing another amazing day and great video of your adventures. Ride safe Noraly!

    HUGE respect! I, too, would have given up or at the very least, had a few moments of tearful frustration. I guess it “helps” when you know that doesn’t really help and the only option is to keep going.
    It’s amazing how much your skills and confidence have grown with all the various situations you’ve ridden into and out of. I still remember the time you encountered a torrent of water coming down the mountain and across the road in India during your first season-mountain on one side, steep drop-off on the other and too narrow to turn around. That is what totally hooked me then and continues to keep me on the line!! It’s been years now of daring, growing competence and compelling adventure. There is hardly anything left you cannot do!! Brava!
    Thanks for taking us along!

    Amazing how Noraly looks so fresh after such an arduous ride through the muddy jungle roads of Cameroon. I get exhausted just from the adrenaline rush watching Noraly's adventures.

  •  11 месяцев назад +18

    Seriously, I can't imagine these roads as my local everyday routes. No disrespect at all, just unimaginable to this old guy where I'm from. Tip of the hat to the locals and their kindness for helping out and their advice. Bless you Noraly for being a great world citizen and expecting the best and getting it from most everyone you meet. I find it such an inspiration. Most media only chronicles the bad, yet here you are in the jungle, stuck on a muddy road, and where I come from they'd say in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Yet here you are with muddy Alaska in Cameroon. You are somewhere and the wonderful people of this place show up with kindness, willing hearts, and want to help. I can only deduct that the world is a far greater and a better place than we are often led to believe. Continued safe travels my dear online brave and traveling friend. Blessings!

    Noraly, you are truly an amazing person. What you are doing, so many people are afraid to do. I've had a similar experience with muddy roads in Africa, but nowhere close to the intensity of yours. One day in Ghana, I was in the car with my sister who was also the driver. She drove 3-minutes in mud. The road was so bad, and at one point, the car was just rolling on its own - my sis had lost control of the wheel. She was screaming in horror, but it was so funny to me because it felt like a rollercoaster. It was around 11am this happened. But after the experience, she told me she was done for the day. The 3-minute muddy experience took all her energy. 😅We went back home and slept for the rest of the day. 😂 I will never forget this day because I laughed so hard, especially when my sister screamed, "That's it, I'm done." But this is what makes Africa so much fun. I just love the raw nature and the crazy experiences.
