Hi all, a few shots of my WR in Morocco last month.
Bike was running all the usuals for this sort of travel (see pic below). All that's missing is a better seat and maybe a small screen.
Over the High Atlas mountains via a quiet back road.
A quick lunch.
Then deeper into the desert.
A new route through the Anti Atlas.
Up into the hills again.
Confusing sign.
Full Moroccan brekkie
Past the oasis
Hot night in the desert
I take a short cross country ride to another track.
Lovely fresh water from the spring.
I'm heading for Essemara (Smara), close to the northern Maurtianian border
Strong northerlies out here
Recent rains have brought out the wildflowers
Important crossroads - turn right here or die horribly!
Nice view over a chott, or dry lake bed
On the chott - great fun to ride
Night time in Smara. Rougher than it looks but always wanted to go there.
And now a l o n g ride back north via a few more tracks and a freezing crossing of the High Atlas
My '08 didn't miss a beat, but I could sure use more comfort at my age.
You really need nothing more on the dirt but could do with more poke on the highway
My original Yam desert bike from 1982. Stuff has got a lot better since then ;-)
