Morocco Bound?
Just got back from Morocco following a group of enduro bikes round a route that takes in some Sahara and some Atlas mountains.
Third time I've been and I'm now feeling confident enough to organise a trip myself. I'm looking for expressions of interest only at this stage for a trip next October. Depending on ferry timings we would be away between 3 and 4 weeks. The total mileage from my door to my door. North West Wales, is about 4000 miles which is about 1500 down, 1000 in the desert and mountains and about 1500 back. The off road sections are not extreme, Standard Terrano and up can do it but Xtrails are a bit low. 2" susp lift and/or bigger tyres 31/10/15 type makes it better. some flying stone protection is a good idea. Accommodation is in hotels and desert camps but the quality can be "interesting". 2 sharing a room keeps the cost down. You need to be ready to rough it a bit. Total cost at todays prices is sub £3000 including fuel and ferries. I would be prepard to lead, organise and co-ordinate if people where willing. I'm not making a profit, every thing passed on at cost and I am paying my own way. Peter |
