      Hi, So the route into Dades was the R704 from Agoudal. The route after Todra Gorge I don't think has a reference. That said, if you zoom in on Google maps you can find it heading left, just as you leave Tamtetoucht and head back towards the R704. Hope you find them ...And enjoy!👍

      Better airflow and seal against dust with goggles. Can still use the visor with the goggles in situ (great on the motorway / rain) so super versatile. Goggles (100%) are photochromic too so auto adjust depending on light levels - total game changer👍

      Thanks, really appreciate it. I'll try and include some in the coming vids. Food varies a lot but is typically really good. I travel on a pretty tight budget but that goes along way in Morocco. As a minimum it's jam, bread, fruit and mint tea, right up to pancakes, eggs, bread, honey, yoghurt, fruit, coffee, juice. And cannabis is mainly seen in the North (Rif Mountains - Chefchaouen etc) ..... there's legal production too, for Medicinal/industrial purposes..... and No, other than the unavoidable, it's really not my thing✌️

      @EpicADV Місяць тому

      Ahh so much choice. Guess it depends how much time you want to take getting South. If you're heading into Santander then you're duty bound to go via the Picos. If it's a quick dash South then I go via Burgos, Valladolid, Salamanca, Caceres, Seville. If you have time then a more scenic route may be Burgos, Avilla, Cuevas del Valle, Guadalupe, Galizuela, Cazalla de la Sierra, Ronda. Enjoy!

    In terms of practicality what type of insurance/ break down cover do you need? And are you mechanically minded?

    • @EpicADV
      @EpicADV Місяць тому

      Hi, for Morocco, Insurance (3rd Party) was bought on the way out of the Ferry Terminal at Tangier Med (there are kiosks for Insurance, Mobile SIMs and ATMs) I took a Revolute card and used ATMs for cash (difficult to get Moroccan Dirhams outside of the country). No breakdown cover and not particularly mechanically minded. I can sort a puncture but work on the basis that bikes are pretty reliable these days (I bought a Tenere T700 specifically because it doesn't have loads of sensors and 'aids' (Just ABS), so less stuff to go wrong. I take a small tool kit for the basics. Service the bike before heading off and work on a good helping of optimism ... and pick my moments. The weak link is likely me, more than the bike. If I'm really remote then I'm more cautious with my riding, for both our sakes.
