Itchy Boots

There are so many good riders/travelers who are ridging interesting and maybe no less dangerous places and posting on YT, yet only she gets this much attention. Beats me :)

She has a charisma that many of the other folks do not. Why does one kid get to be class president in high school? Lots of reasons. Whatever it is, Noraly has it.

Fortunately, for some, there are alternatives to view, so they don't have to watch IB. Some 2.8 million others still are watching.

She's attractive, pleasant, and she is a savvy marketer.
This is what I've been doing now for 6 years -- marketing.
Keys are:
A formula that works for her. Excellent branding.
Consistent, quality content.
Excellent production quality, improving season over season.
Multiple social channels.
Good website.
She does what she wants.
Ecom store with branded merch.
This is more work than most can ever imagine, and she admits this on occasion.
Single-minded focus on this endeavor; she's not scattering her energy on non-related interests or hobbies.
No need for anyone - even me - to defend her. No matter of, or sometimes BECAUSE of her success, there will always be critics and detractors, but this is not restricted to moto vloggers or travelers, it is human nature.
There is a subset of humanity who will always resent the success of others, and it's always been this way.
 
Do not build yourself an idol.
That's an interesting response ... interesting because of the actual source of the statement ... as it is found in the Ten Commandments, specifically the second commandment, and is found in both Exodus 20:4-6 and Deuteronomy 5:8. ...

(sidenote: it emphasizes the importance of worshipping only the one true God and not creating physical representations for worship)

That's right.
 
Idols, why are we bringing religion into this? It is just motorcycles and people who ride them in interesting parts of the world on roads most of us could not ride.

They are not my "idols", I just enjoy watching them as I like watching a swallow or a bald eagle fly though the air.

They have stories to tell like Homer, Shakespeare, Mark Twain and Lee Child. Critiques of the stories is fine, but don't criticize me for reading or watching what I enjoy.

Nothing wrong with it. I enjoy watching different YT riders too.
It's just some making a "religious" object of her. At least it looks like it in some posts :).
Don't beat me up for how I'm seeing it, lol
 
I asked for her book, Free Ride. as a father's day gift and my daughter got me a copy from Powell's Books in Portland before they were even placed on the shelves!
