    Morocco Bound

    Have a Honda Transalp elderly but it goes. I intend to take it down to Morocco in 23 April (St Georges Day) crossing from Plymouth to Spain. The aim is to get to Agadir crossing from Spain to Morocco on the Ceuta ferry. Is any one else heading that way?

    Re: Morocco Bound

    I will be in Morocco at that time, i leave from Portsmouth on April 14th, i intend to be on the coast around Sidi Ifni (about 100 miles south of Agadir) at the end of April, and spend a week or so on the Beach before heading back.

    I don't have a fixed schedule only that I'm booked on a ferry from Santander on the 18th of may.

    Re: Morocco Bound

    Sorry for the late reply. I am catching the ferry on 23 April and go down Agadire. I have about 2 weeks. I want to take the road from Marrakesh to Tizi-n-Test and then back upto Essaouira, along the coastal. Bike is being serviced.......cobblers...need need a new back tyre and break pads. I am not sure about the best route down through Spain, but I intend to cross over Cueta and into Moroco on the land border. "!"

    Give me a ring when you're in Morocco, I also want to visit Marrakesh and the road up to Tizi-n-Test. 00447822185508 (this is a roaming sim that i only use abroad).

    As i said i can't be bothered with schedules so if we are in the same area we could meet and swap information.

    Re: Morocco Bound

    I am not sure when I will get there. I reckon I should be in this area around the 30th April. I'll try and contact you when I am about. It would be good to meet up and exchange information. I also will have a small laptop so I should be able to get emails. Direct email is nigel@njcpublications.co.uk .
    I had the bike serviced last week. A friend was telling me about this filler (gunge)that you can spray inside the tyre that fills up punctures and stops the tyre deflating......has any one tried this stuff out and does it work?

    If you're travelling alone when you get to Morocco avoid the Riff mountains - drug producing area

    How much of Morocco do you want to see?

    If you email me on paul dot stanley at landg dot com I can forward a detailed report from a trip I did with road and map references
