Riding through the Sahara Desert is a truly unforgettable experience.

Piste route – the stretch between M`hamid where the paved road ends and the checkpoint at Erg Chigaga.

You will ride through the wilderness of the Sahara desert. Unforgettable experience.

You can’t get wrong! Both routes are marvelous.

Piste or road route? What’s your choice?

Riders will enjoy it either way! Just a reminder – always grab some extra water.

The route is simply breathtaking!

“It’s a great adventure for anyone and also a serious test for any competitive racer who can hold it together physically and mentally. The route combines a diverse range of incredible scenery and surfaces including shifting desert sands, rough piste, and gravel. Strategy, logistics, planning, adaptability, and resilience will be needed as riders will be seriously isolated with few and meager options for resupply in rural Morocco where on occasions you may only find a few packets of wafer biscuits and tins of tuna. The route is simply breathtaking” – Donncha Cuttriss

It was the sickest adventure he rode so far!

“I can’t describe how epic this adventure was I don’t even think I can revelate what I just did” – Lamri Adjis

Finish Sidi Ifni

The finish is again in Sidi Ifni:

In the hotel Suerte Loca, built 1936, riders spend time playing billard, table football, listening live music and resting and eating a lot of good food.

Road into Chefchaouen

This road into Chefchaouen got a hard surface. We found a new unpaved route into Chefchaouen. This one is now the route for the Morocco-BikeAdventure road route.

Registration closes tomorrow

The Morocco-BikeAdventure is a real adventure hard to find these days. Along the piste route in the desert, you find several water wells and the water is usually fine to drink.

Registration for the coming October edition closes tomorrow:

Peter registered again!

Peter registered again!
He will be back at the start of the Morocco-BikeAdventure piste route coming October.

His goal: “Enjoy the ride!”

We are sure, also with his long brakes till he starts in the morning, as fast he rides his bike he will finish at Sidi Ifni as one of the leading riders.

Morocco – the land of contrasts!

You will ride through mountains, plains, deserts, oases, all kinds of landscapes. You will see huge sand dunes on the route, the highest in Morocco in fact!

Not to worry, you don’t have to climb them!
