Adventure is Out There! – Off-Road Ride to The Lake Kariba in Zambia – On Her Bike – EP. 113
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
A solo off-road ride to Lake Kariba puts sandy roads and a motorcycle fall at the centre of this Zambia episode. The journey also brings a meeting with fellow adventure riders and a few days of shared company.
About this film
This episode belongs to OnHerBike’s Africa, Round The World series. The wider journey began in April 2017, when the rider left Australia for a solo trip around the world on a BMW F800GS. Recorded in April 2021, this chapter focuses on the ride to Lake Kariba and the encounters that followed. Its account stays close to the practical rhythm of off-road travel: when the motorcycle goes down, it is picked up, pride is dusted off, and the ride continues.
The journey
The ride to Lake Kariba in Zambia takes place on quiet, scenic sandy roads. The route is described as adventurous and off-road, with a fall along the way that does not end the journey. At the lake, the solo ride turns into a social stop: the rider meets other adventure motorcyclists, all of whom are also riding BMW F800GS motorcycles. The following days bring good company, laughter and a change of pace from the solitary road.
