A funny ending to the newest episode....stalling the bike.

She needs to get the wiring fixed soon.

I was wondering why she didnt stall it in the first place. The border crossing today looked like a pain. I still think she should go someplace else for an adventure.

Maybe whatever she was doing with the wires was to keep the battery from discharging overnight?

I agree with you on moving on soon.

Todays episode....she is getting discouraged and I can't blame her.

All day to get through a border crossing. I hate her being in that part of the world.:eek::eek:

She puts her full trust in a random guy (Mohammed) and everything works out fine.
Thankfully, she has lights again. Riding in Baghdad at night with no lights at all was crazy.

This could be her.

New episode..
What a hassle just to fuel up!

It seems a couple suicide bombers on motorcycles blew up a gas station.

She is getting real good with that drone.
Some spectacular scenery shots in todays episode along with challenging roads.

The preview of the next episode looks interesting.

So frustrating watching her riding technique; wrong gear, too slow, sitting when should be on the pegs, on the pegs when should be on the tank, ugh. Hate to be a complainer, but after every episode I need to watch something like this to balance the world.

At least the scenery is nice, the local food is shown slightly longer than 5 milliseconds, and most of the people are wonderful.

I can’t believe you took the time to write and post that. Given her overall body of work, the amount of the world she’s covered, the insight she’s provided to those that don’t have the means or bravery to do what she does, you’re going to attack her technique? You appear to be the type of person that would complain if you were being hung with an old rope.

From the southern tip of South America to the northern tip of Alaska, Africa and India and the Dakar rally. She has my respect.

Plus she took the time to take Police Motorbike Training and Moto-Cross Training.

I think she is doing exceptionally well.

Well today's road was one of the worst...glad she finally listened to those guys.
I thought for a while she was going to need to load it on that truck.

^^^ With the hibab, face mask, and hair cover, she looked quite good....:)
Very colorful.

I wasn't expecting Yemen to be quite like where she was in todays episode.

.

Learned a lot from today's episode....Socotra is a very unique place.

Have been watching her for about 5 years now. Brave woman and some of her situations, especially Africa simply make me SMH. Now that she is in Yemen I pray for her safe journey because the men there could care less who you are and she could very well go missing and it would be all over...

Very rare for her to have escorts for several days in one area. I'd like to see her get out of Yemen and back on Frankie.
