KTM350 EXC vs Little Chinese Bike on the BEACHES of MADAGASCAR🇲🇬[S7-E100]
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
This episode follows a second attempt to ride south along Madagascar’s west coast, with Morombe as the next point in the journey. Before the coastal ride continues, two days are spent travelling by “tuff-tuff”; the title sets up a contrast between a KTM 350 EXC and a small Chinese motorcycle on the beaches.
About this film
Part of Itchy Boots’ Season 7 journey, “Return to Africa,” this film returns to a west-coast route that has already been interrupted by a motorcycle breakdown. Didier’s Kawasaki broke down, and he obtained another motorcycle to ride, though the description notes that the replacement has troubles of its own. The episode’s central thread is the renewed attempt to head south, rather than a standalone motorcycle comparison: the two bikes named in the title are presented within the larger Madagascar journey. Before setting off along the section where the sand begins, the travellers spend two days on a “tuff-tuff” to reach Morombe.
The journey
The route is described as an attempt to travel south along Madagascar’s west coast, with Morombe marking the next stage. The title places the motorcycles on the beaches, while the description identifies sand as a feature of the route beyond Morombe. That combination makes the change in terrain relevant to the journey, but the supplied information does not specify the precise road or beach sections, the riding conditions, or how far south the episode gets. The story’s progression is clear in outline: an earlier breakdown leads to Didier riding a different motorcycle, the group makes the two-day trip to Morombe, and the southbound coastal effort is set to begin again. The new bike’s own problems remain part of the challenge.
People, places and moments
Didier is the only person named in the description, and his motorcycle change provides the episode’s practical complication. The film’s stated destination is Morombe, on the west coast of Madagascar, and the title foregrounds beach riding and two contrasting motorcycles: a KTM 350 EXC and a “little Chinese bike.” Beyond those details, the available source does not identify the replacement motorcycle, explain its troubles, or describe particular encounters or outcomes. Viewers can expect a journey shaped by getting back on the road after a breakdown and by the prospect of sand on the route, rather than a fully detailed account of what happens after the attempt resumes.
What to expect
- A renewed attempt to ride south along Madagascar’s west coast
- A two-day trip by “tuff-tuff” to Morombe before the sand begins
- Didier’s replacement motorcycle and the contrast named in the title
