Motorcycling the Atlas Mountains of Morocco gone WRONG |S7 - E10|
In this episode, I have plotted myself a route straight through the high Atlas Mountains of Morocco. The day turns out to be extremely challenging as I find myself on a steep downhill path which is washed out and very rocky. With steep cliffs on the side, I am just trying not to slide off the mountain entirely.

Oei 😨, that was really tricky. So narrow and steep where the motor 🏍️ fell. Glad it all went well in the end.
Boy, my mom who is 80, and one who has become your biggest fan, was screaming her lungs out. When I rushed into her room, she was watching your video & was praying and blessing you as well. After losing my dad in January 2022, she had become a bit withdrawn. Thank you for bringing cheer and energy into her life. Stay safe & blessed.

Inspite of watching Noraly negotiating some really risky terrain over the last 4 years, this was the very first instance where me, my wife, my 84 year old mother in law literally sat on the edge of our seats praying to god she doesn’t fall off the cliff. Be safe Noraly. This particular pass was a point of no return for you as there wasn’t even the width to turn your bike around and return. Thank god you’re safe 🙏👏🏼👍🏼
You were on the edge of a cliff and we were on the edge of our seats. No comparison. Hats off to you Noraly. Stay safe
Even if the go-pro makes it look easy , it definitely looked dangerous and for once i was scared about Noraly falling down the wrong way. Very very tough riding conditions here. A bit too risky . Hats off to Noraly for tackling this stretch of the route bravely. She has honed her biking skills at Baja rally which we can see her using well. Stay safe Noraly.

Dude...that's exactly what I was thinking , the rally stuff she's been doing came in handy but that bike is HEAVY and that situation could have definitely ended things for a bit. Of all the places she's been Africa is going to be the riskiest I think. Mexico had its problems in cartel country and central America she had that guy with a rope laid down across the road but I feel that the lack of gov infrastructure and the isolated social standards here in Africa will put her in dangerous situations. I hope she's got a gun.

She also has to consider that when she’s racing, there are paramedics not too far and others around to help of something goes wrong. Also the bike is lighter and if it gets damaged, it’s not such a big deal cause she’s not living on it. She’s mentioned before how she has to carefully calculate her risks when travelling like this and stay within what she can handle. It’s actually very impressive what she manages to accomplish and that training has definitely improved her skills. This isn’t easy to ride or to assess. Good job, Noraly!

The only solace I have for my anxiety watching these seriously dangerous moments is reminding myself that I am watching a video that I would be seeing only if you had successfully completed this treacherous streach.

I have been researching karst resources of Croatia and Montenegro. Having +50 years of speleological interests in and outside the USA. I'd recommend submerged reef caves of Micronesia. Because the water is warm down to 30 feet. You'll need a support vessel with facilities to counter ill effects of deeper descents and other comforts. I had the infrastructure provided by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The US Army is still there. Tomisslav Makaj, if a USA Citizen, could volunteer for oversea military deployment within Micronesia.
This must have been one of the most dangerous episodes ever - like the ones in Kazachztan in former years, maybe worse. The downward sloping rocky and sandy serpentine was unnerving and the steep slopes close by could pose a deadly threat as soon as the front wheel starts sliding. You have become so good at riding. It is very impressive! I would have turned around several times not daring to go on like you did. This lady really has 'cojones' enough for football-team! Wow!
Hallo Noraly, I just have to say that I think the world of you as a person and as a woman for going where you have gone and for your excellent motorcycling skills. I have ridden bikes for 20 years and I absolutely admire you! You are the personification of FREEDOM. God go with you dear girl.
Wow!! Koodos! Noraly goes from a desert road in between 2 places to a dry river bed and walking path between 2 desert tracks. Then onto the narrow mountainside trail fit for a donkey or camel. And all the while the camera is so steady and calm. Amazing!! Such a warrior!!

I’ve been following you when you went throught the dangerous roads in Guatemala. Never ever though that you would be in my country one day. Thank you for the beautiful views. Just one thing, Morocco has one of the toughest nature landscapes in the water , in the mountains and the desert. It has a history of explorers and professionals who lost their lifes or got severly injured trying to catch the beauty of the wilderness through their sports. We love you a lot and we hope mother nature has been forgiving this time too 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼. Stay safe, in Morocco we tend to ask the locals about roads condition more than relying on the maps. They give very good safety tips. Also there are some roads where even us experienced drivers decide to leave our cars and go with local drivers because they have learned each curve and hill by heart while we’re crying in the back seat😂. Best of luck to you and we’re really looking forward more of your videos in Africa ❤

Congratulations on Women's Day Noraly. Incredibly interesting to follow you on your adventures. What is particularly interesting is how you show that the western idea of dangerous places for a woman to travel alone is not dangerous at all, wherever you go you are always welcomed with open arms and a friendly smile, and even if people have little so they are willing to share what little they have with a stranger. Is the eye of the sahara something you are considering visiting? Would like to see your observations and what you can say with your knowledge if this could be Atlantis.

Once Noraly gets into the mountain road which seems to be a misnomer as it is just a dirt track that it skirts the mountain to the point where you are barely hugging onto whatever ledge that will allow you to continue on ... Ay-yay Yay Caramba!!! GO ITCHY BOOTS, GO !!!
Wow, what a rough tough ride on the narrow, steep mountainside!!! Sjoe my heart was in my mouth when you were lifting her with a stone next to the front wheel to stop her sliding!

There is a reason why she has a "Garmin Inreach Mini" attached to her jacket (the little red device). If she push the button for real alert (not test) and confirm, it will send SOS including GPS coordinates to international rescue center via satellite. They will then contact nearest help in the area. It will take some time but at least they can rescue her (sometimes with helicopter .... even military ones) in the particular corresponding country she is in.

Thank you Noraly on behalf of armchair explorers everywhere. This episode reminds me of riding my Hodaka Ace in California's Mohave desert many years ago, very similar terrain, unforgiving and very tough what with all the scree. Still in the end, overcoming is it's own reward and the fun returns after you whip it. Someones looking out for you tho, the mirror and windscreen are still intact. Cant wait for the next installment...

Ridden TAT twice, most of the BDR USA routes, Alaska and back, and countless other adventure rides. BUT….I was never alone and always had my two other adventure buddies alongside. With a threesome you always have 3x the probability of failures, crashes, mechanical, and other emergencies….but you are never alone. I cannot imagine being “out there” and all alone like Itchy Boots….let alone the risks associated with riding through a foreign country’s badlands. And yes, those GoPro cameras utterly dumb down the complexity of the terrain….so if you think it looks tough from her GoPro video, it was 3x as scary in real life. KUDO’s Itchy….we love you….Godspeed to you.
So there are NO ROAD SIGNS in Morocco, eh ? Immediate concern as this video began. As a LONGTIME viewer I feel personally at risk, riding along with you in these desolate, yet beautiful conditions. Huffing and puffing along with you as the struggles continue. Although I’m perpetually impressed with all you do and all the substantial difficulties you conquer, I always return to what my thoughts will be as the video concludes. For me Morocco has been the most surprising of destinations because I didn’t know what to expect. I must say that, given the difficult circumstances you’ve encountered here, you must have needed a little break between the end here and the finished video you have completed. And through it all, we still hear that encouraging little giggle as you struggle mightily where many of us may call it a day. I’m SUCH A FAN, NORALY !…❤❤Rick

Keep in mind that she is the one choosing the most remote roads and avoids all main roads that's why there are no signs because nobody uses these.

If you were "SUCH A FAN" as you claim, you'd know that being the adrenaline junkie she is, she always opts for unpaved marginal mountain roads for the sake of off-roading

Well said 🙂 - I lift her in prayer for Angels to guard and protect her.
I was in that predicament last week on my 750, bike went down in such an awkward place that there was a rut, bike was flat and had no footing, had to drag the bike down the by around 3 to 4 feet, before I could get her back up, but we grin and bare it for the things we love to do, all the best Norally
It's an endless thrill seeing the geography of the world through your eyes. I had no idea what Morocco is really like.
My Goodness! That Was Tense! My Body Was So Stressed On That Narrow Loose Rock Trail!
OMG!!!! 😲😳😮 My palms were sweating through this ride as I'm sure yours must have been too! Incredible!!! Can't wait for the next episode! Girl you got some skills! RESPECT!!
Well, that sure turned into a hopping up and down in my chair and gasping episode! Shades of other mountains you've almost got plunged off - whoot! Also, the erosion patterns in those mountains is endlessly fascinating, as well as the blending in towns.
I am totally impressed with your skills negotiating your way through this gnarly terrain. I worry sometimes when you take a spill, but you always manage to get going again. Bravo!
