My first motorcycle ride in South Africa 🇿🇦 [S5 – Eps. 4]
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
A first ride on a Honda CRF250L begins Itchy Boots’ on-road journey in South Africa. Leaving Johannesburg and heading north, the episode introduces the season’s riding through its first asphalt and dirt roads.
About this film
Part of Season 5: Southern Africa, this 17-minute film documents the first real ride on the Honda CRF250L in South Africa. Its focus is the shift from arriving in the country to travelling by motorcycle: the bike is taken out of Johannesburg, and the journey gets underway. The description’s emphasis on experiencing both asphalt and dirt gives the episode a clear, practical starting point, grounded in the surfaces encountered on this first ride rather than a broader account of the country.
The journey
The route begins in Johannesburg and runs north for a stretch. On South African soil, the ride includes both paved and unpaved sections, marking the first experience of each on this journey. The episode belongs to an ongoing Southern Africa season, while this particular instalment stays close to the opening ride and the move away from the big city. Its travel story is therefore a beginning: a motorcycle, a northbound direction and the first kilometres of a new riding chapter.
What to expect
- The first ride on a Honda CRF250L in South Africa
- A departure from Johannesburg heading north
- Initial riding on both asphalt and dirt
