Moto-Morocco September 2007

[buckles]

Good write up Mike, some cracking photo's included too . (don't tell anyone but your taste in music ain't that bad really lol)

What an experience I could not stop smiling for days after we left Morocco. I must admit it was very very tough going and at one point I thought Andy was going to bale out totally - bless him, what a trooper

You guys were great, thanks for treating me like one of the lads


Dean it was a shame we did not get chance to catch up, hope you enjoyed exploring alone and managed not to buy any more gifts

See you all again sometime Diane xx

What a fantastic write up

Mutley will be comforted from the last picture

Oi! Naughty I'm hardcore now you know

So many memories from my trip, it all came rushing back

 

[Fanum]

Diane...it was a real pleasure having you along- the two of you were awesome on that 12

H......You wait 'til ya get ya prezzy- it's definitely going to be a camera moment

 

[MikeP]

Phew!

DVD of my camcorder footage now ready to go out.

Please either email your address to me or get Bill to pass it on.

The DVD is 40 minutes but does not include any of Bill's, Steve's or Tony's movie stuff. I may get around to stringing something together from those sources eventually.

Be gentle with me, this is only the third time I've used the camera and editing software!

Steve ('Nuffsaid), I have your address, I'll send your copy and Tony's together if that's okay?

Gasman Steve, can I send Ken's via you?

Oh yes, no apologies for the choice of musical accompaniment!

[MikeP]

Diane,

Glad you got it safely, chuffed that you enjoyed it.

(I nearly produced another version just for you with some special music tracks! ).

I learned a lot about filming from that trip. Next month I won't make so many errors. I hope).

[GS TRV]

great write up

very tempting indeed too - more excuses to spend money

 

[MikeP]

Cheers guys.

If it persuades you to have a go at one of these trips, I might send a copy of the DVD (covers some of the riding and a section on the scenery) to you if you PM your details. A small donation to one of the various GS sponsored charities will do.

(My local dealership has requested a copy to play on their video screens in-shop so it ain't too shabby! )

Hi Diana and Andy,
Good to hear from you.I had a couple more trips after "The Big One".The first was back to Morocco last January...intended to follow the Paris Dakar but it got cancelled at the last mo...still went on my own and had a great time.Got down as far as Tan-Tan in the south then headed back.Bloody freezing in the mountains.Spent 3 weeks out there and met loads of others doing the same.
The other trip was a couple of weeks in the Andalucia mountains here in Spain last March.I feel another Morocco trip coming on soon...Maybe around xmas.
Click on links below for pics of trips.
Take care
Dean
