Many years ago when were walkers rather than cyclists we had a wonderful trip to Morocco. We were taken in a white van to the High Atlas Mountains from there we had a young man and a donkey and walked for about 10 days. At one stage we were 2 days walk from the nearest road end. We were staying in the little settlements along these walking tracks and it really felt like being in biblical times. An amazing experience

You guys are starting to count down your start date!?

Beautiful photos! What an amazing place!

You definitely don’t want to climb up this!

Guard rail appears to have been "used."

Nice that you found a place with a panoramic view.

It was a rewarding ride to Telouet. The next day was even better!

Hi Cyril, it was indeed nice to see you again. Happy travels and stay in touch. You can also email us at racpat_rtw at yahoo dot com.

How great you could find a taxi up the steepest climb but the rest of the ride looked challenging, also.

Hi Rachel and Patrick
What a pleasure to meet you again, I could not believe it! :D Sorry for having missed Rachel at first, it really all goes too fast when travelling in a car - but then I definitely recognised you Patrick with your custom handlebar bag. :)

Really like your candid way of writing and your comprehensive picture gallery which lets me retrace your tour and reminds me of many things I've seen.

I hope you are enjoying the sunny south of the Atlas! I would be very happy to stay in touch with you and I'll be sure to follow your blogs, maybe we'll see each other a third time on this tour, inshallah! :)

All my best wishes,
Cyril

good. Indeed it is not a competition game but a fantastic adventure

Thanks Andrea, it's overwhelming sometimes for sure

Beautiful views and scenes! Glad you got a ride over the pass. Cheating? That's the last thing that came to mind. Just sensible.

You guys are monsters, that pass looks so cold and difficult, but incredibly beautiful.

Good for you.
