Marrakech on the new GS

[kirk71]

I was very fortunate enough to be at the launch for the new GS in Marrakech, thought i would post a couple of pics as i was blown away by the views. The mountains were beautiful to ride through, though a bit hair rasing at the same time

nice what a great place to ride a bike ! Looks like you had fun

i certainly did, was possibly some of the best riding i have done to date. the locals were so friendly. the kids were pouring out along the roadside to high five us as we rode past. think my hand was numb after 3 hours of slapping
it amazed me the lack of "safety" barriers up i the mountain sections. the drops were not something i wanted to think about.

mate that was the funniest part, at the base of that hill were 2 4x4 toyota trucks, with the drivers stood looking up the hill pondering what to do.
all 6 of us hooked 2nd gear and took the hill.
was a great moment...........
