On 30th of September I left Glos on my gleaming GS for my second visit to Morroco.
I travelled with my friend Alan, as I did last year, the only down side is he snores like a tractor stuck in the mud and I had to share a cabin with him on the ferry. I mangaed this until 3 in the morning when I slept on a couch in the bar!
We met the other riders and pillions on board and of course the chef de tour Roy a.k.a Blue sweeper ( the boss ).
First Coffee stop in Spain and already some GS mending to be done.
Owing to dramatic weather in Spain I kept my camera undercover till I reached Ronda.
Old Bridge in Ronda
The first view of North Africa which you approach by Ferry
After clearing customs we headed out to the Riff Mountains, obviously avoiding traffic hot spots.
Great colours in the Riff
Big grin in first days riding in Morroco
Bit of, Off Roading at Fes.el.Bali with splinter group of GS's
Spectaicular view of Fes from the Riff
View of the Medina Populated by 950,000
In the Medina
When in Fes!
How to avoid a carpet salesmen!
Left Fes and found these Monkeys while looking for fuel at Ifrane
First view of the low Atlas
View back from Low Atlas
Paul trying to compose a picture, with out electric cables
Stunning scenery, we aim for the gap!
View of the Mid-Atlas
We followed the river down and met some locals and paid them not to clean my bike
Sign in Arabic for caution, Andy refused to stand by his bike for picture after leaving the road, (Off road Andy)
First view of sand at Erfoud
We stayed at the now famous hotel Xaluca, hang out of the Paris Dakar boys while practicing (Raffa Cisca's bike)
Some camels
Someone on a Honda?
The pool and yes that is the bar in it.
4x4ing in the Dunes
Long strait road Ouarzazate
The river
Youngest member of the tour, in Todra Gorge
Todra Gorge itself
Bit of Flood damage
If you look hard you can see snow ontop of the High Atlas on the way to Marrkesh
Storm clouds Brewing
Fertile farm land
Bits of GS littering the desert
Sometimes it pays not to ride to fast!
Chocolate City at Ait.Benhaddou
Some GSers in the distance
A coach doing a dodgy overtake in the Tichka pass
Many colours in the Atlas
Some great corners
No pics of Marrakesh only of me leaving early morning of the mist on the Atlas but might of been pollution
Bob a top chap fixing stuff
Mohamed who drove the back up truck having a sneeky sit on a GS
A view of the Cascades De Ouzoud
The Boss
Another one of the Falls
Lunch halfway down the Falls with guests a monkey, a cat and a chicken
More colours in the Atlas
The lake at Bin.el.Quidae
Me at the Roman City being a tourist (Volubilis)
Fertile farm land of north west Morroco, with a view of the Atlantic in the far distance
Bike security at Chefchaouen, would you argue with her?
Lunch down a dodgy alley
We crossed back over to Spain (view of the rock)
And headed for a resturant I know in Marbella for lunch, to do some people watching.
He let us park our bikes next to his pool.
We then headed up through Spain were i didn't bother getting my camera out, sorry. Just to thank Roy and all the people on the trip for a great time.
