FILM
Itchy Boots rides KALAHARI RALLY – Stage 2. Racing with wild horses.
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
Stage 2 of the Kalahari Rally is a long-distance motorcycle-racing episode from Itchy Boots’ Southern Africa journey. The stage covers more than 700 kilometres, with most of the riding over sand, dirt and gravel, and brings an unexpected trio of wild horses into the race.
About this film
This 27-minute episode belongs to Season 5, Southern Africa, and follows Itchy Boots during the Kalahari Rally. Its defining measure is the length of the stage: she describes it as the farthest distance she has ridden in a single day. The focus is on covering that distance by motorcycle across predominantly unpaved terrain, with the rally setting the frame for the day’s ride. Rather than a general overview of the event, the film centres on one stage and the unusual moment that interrupts its progress.
The journey
The route for this stage stretches for over 700 kilometres. Most of the distance is on sand, dirt and gravel, making the changing surfaces a central part of the ride. The episode records a demanding single-day effort within the rally, measured by both the distance covered and the predominantly loose or unsealed ground. During the stage, three wild horses join the race. Their appearance adds a striking encounter to a ride otherwise defined by the long route and its varied surfaces. The film keeps its attention on the progress of this one rally stage, rather than presenting a broader itinerary.
What to expect
- A rally stage exceeding 700 kilometres in one day
- Predominantly sand, dirt and gravel riding
- Three wild horses joining the race during the stage
