EDITORIAL SUMMARY
This Season 5 episode takes Itchy Boots on a local exploration around Uis, Namibia, with a visit to the White Lady rock painting and a ride on a different motorcycle. The bike swap brings a 1988 Honda Africa Twin, showing 150,000 kilometres on its odometer, into the journey.
About this film
Part of the Southern Africa series, the film combines a place of cultural interest with a meeting connected to the Brandberg Rest Camp. Basil, who owns the camp, joins the episode’s riding story by swapping motorcycles with Itchy Boots. The title frames the exchange around the possibility of trading a CRF250L for Basil’s Africa Twin, while the description confirms that the ride on the older Honda takes place. The film’s focus is the local outing and the experience of riding this particular motorcycle, rather than a general review.
The journey
The exploration is based around Uis in Namibia. It begins with a visit to the White Lady, a famous rock painting described as hidden beneath a rock in the Brandberg, Namibia’s tallest mountain. The outing then continues with a ride alongside Basil and a swap of bikes. Itchy Boots rides his 1988 Honda Africa Twin, whose odometer reads 150,000 kilometres. The episode moves between the Brandberg landmark and a local ride, keeping the journey close to Uis while offering a change from the motorcycle normally used on the trip.
What to expect
- A local exploration around Uis in Namibia.
- A visit to the White Lady rock painting in the Brandberg.
- A motorcycle swap and ride on a 1988 Honda Africa Twin with 150,000 kilometres shown.
