Itchy Boots

I would think it would go via the Suez Canal

Well, now that we know Noraly is going Home to the Netherlands first, the Suez is a possibility if going to Africa

She made it seem like she was heading to her next destination NOW, but obviously she's taking a home break

As straight as possible, I guess......there must be many many intermediate stops along the way (Asia, Singapore, who knows), for such a cargo as odd as a cycle from Alaska.

I found a post elsewhere about someone asking about shipping their bike from Australia to the US west coast.

Yea, it's not a direct route, as I mistakenly thought. Many diversions as you've mentioned.

Well are you ready for a surprise? Scroll down a little. I didn't expect that......

Well, well ... Noraly's terse suggestions was that she's on the way to the next destination, but obviously, she's going home first

Great investigative work !!

So now, for me, it's no telling what the next continent is (though it would be cool if Australia...been a dream to move there)
 
At the time I posted that f'book link, it was only 17 hours old, now 1 day. I don't know what that might mean.......
I always thought Noraly was weeks ahead of her posts....?

It’s possible they had an agreement not to post anything until their participation in an episode had aired.
 
But why would she ship her bike to NL and her not go there too?

(maybe I need more sleep)

Couple of reasons come readily to mind:
- she needs to return the bike to the NL in order to sell it. Not too likely since she has spent so much money refurbishing/upgrading it.
- or more likely, she is stopping somewhere to do some more riding/training/sightseeing while Alaska is in transit and she will reunite with it when it arrives. It could take quite a while for the bike to get from AK to NL. Wouldn't surprise me if she stops off at the Dakar for a bit.

and plug in Anchorage to Rotterdam, you get 32 days.
 
Paris > Dakar, all by herself? That'll be a long lonely trip - approx 9300 miles........

I was thinking more along the lines of her flying to Saudi and spending some time observing the Dakar. Shouldn't be much of a problem as long as she arranges someone to meet her. She might have difficulty travelling alone in SA.

She was in NL for sure. She is on Rev'it reels at its headquarter in NL. Pay attention to the black metal stairs and the wooden bench on Noraly's video when she was touring the headquarter. Not sure when the reels was filmed tho
 
I'm still sticking with my previous guess.
By the experiences of these travelers, she's got a lot of planning to do before setting off.
 
Has Noraly posted any recent videos after the ones noted in posts above?

I looked on youtube for "Itch Boots most recent episode" and found a bunch that looked like compilations of scenes from her previous videos by other people? How can they do this - maybe with her permission?
