Hello everybody: I´m 32 years old basque boy and I´m planning a bycicle tour (using roads and tracks) in Marocco in november (Moyen and Haute Atlas, Jbel Sahro, Merzouga, Zagora, gorges du Dades, Todra...) for a month. It would be great if someone wants to come with me or do a part of the tour. I speak spanish, english (more or less ) and basque (of course) . I have experience on ciclyng in Spain, Italy and France but never have been further. My idea is to cicle about 60-100 km/day but the day is to short to stay alone in the tent to many hours in the dark... . Have a good day and ¡carpe diem!

Hi

I'm just back from a month's trip in Maroc, following quite a similar itinerary to the one you propose (I went Casablanca - El Ksiba - Imilchil - Tinerhir - Jbel Sarhro - Nekob - Zagora; then a bus to Marrakech; then back on the bike from Marrakech - Imlil (climbed Toubkal) - Tizi n Test - Taroudant - Agadir - Tiznit - Sidi Ifni - Tiznit and a bus back to Casablanca.

Was a great trip! If you're using the Michelin 742 maps it is, in some cases, quite out of date with regard to roads that are now sealed. Otherwise I found facilities such as internet access and accommodation to be a lot more available than I was preparing for in the mountains. Often I just stayed with people in the house as well so I would really wonder about bringing a tent at all if I was going to Morocco another time, maybe just a bivi bag for the long sections in the south.

Anyhow, please email if you want any more information.
