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.

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.

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

Riding through the dunes.

Photo from the route, Irena right after riding through the dunes in the Erg Chigaga part. A good advice for this section would be to bring a good dose of patience, that’s for sure! And if you set the right tire pressure – that might take you a lot further…

New, nice pistes.

Route scouting November 2021 in Morocco. Some nice new pistes waiting for you. Our bikes parked while shopping for some food for the next stretch beside a donkey waiting for his owner. The usual scene in Morocco.

Go, Kevin!

Good luck to Kevin Denson – finisher of the 2nd Morocco-Bike Adventure – piste route, who will ride the #festive500 in one go!

He will be raising money for two charities:

Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome

Go, Kevin!

Read his story: “Flu and 3 weeks off the bike has not been the greatest preparation for riding the furthest single ride I have ever attempted. As one of ten riders chosen to ride the Rapha festive 500 in one ride on the 27th and 28th of December at the iconic Herne Hill Velodrome raising money for The Pink Ribbon Foundation and Herne Hill Velodrome.
