Hello all,
Been offered a trip to Morrocco in a month or so to do some trail riding etc but have no idea what kit to get/ take?
All my current stuff is more road orientated. I dont have a huge pot of cash to spend and think that the majority needs to go on some decent boots (£150!).
On the boot front, can anyone tell me what I'm looking for in an off road boot? Plastic/ leather? size difference to normal footsize? Any recommendations?

Any help or tips greatly recieved!!:)
 
Moroccan Trip

Hi, I went for 8 days back in November and took motocross kit, that I had from my KTM. The firm we went with (Motoaventures) hired kit to those who didn't have any - maybe do this if you don't want to buy it all.

Road kit will be completely unsuitable and I would suggest that you need, mx boots/jersey/trousers with kneepads and also some body armour, in case you fall off or get a stone/rock flicked up from someone you're following.

Also take a 2 litre Camelbak, rucksack for water - this is vital so you don't get de-hydrated.


Finally, your helmet will need to be MX type with goggles, as a visor will scratch or could break.

That said, best week's motorcycling I've ever done, you'll have a blast whatever your skill level - I did and I'm no Cyril Despres!!

Hope you enjoy it
