Morocco 2020
 

Hi, need some help and suggestion about the condition of a coupe of routes i intend to do on April with old BMW G/S and HPN.. the first is from Tagounite to Foum Zguid named P1522... the second is from F. Zguid to Taliouine using P1800 and P1743... so called on Garmin base Camp... especially for the first if it's sandy... I avoid for the reason the other option from Mhamid to F. Zguid....
Tks!!

I did 1522 last year (in a car) I describe it as 'MS77' in my book (168km).
You are right to avoid the start out of Mhamid on a big bike.
On MS77, if you switch to the more northerly MS7 at KM54 and stay north on the stony track you will keep away from the Erg and be fine. (See map below).
But the bike will get a shaking.

P1800 I do it several times a year.
At the turn off west, it continues tarmac as far as Tlite, then carries on 53km of easy stoney piste until near Akka Ighern. Turn left for Akka and right at the Akka roundabout – a very nice desert road up to Tali.

Tks Chris, It's what I wanted to hear... no problem for the bike is a performing HPN sport... problem is the pilot :)

Morroco 2020 - Advice
 

Hi, I am planning to travel solo to Morocco arriving at Nador on 25th April, would like to hook up with like minded people to do some of the Atlas in the following 2 weeks (guidance in Ramadan noted). Is these a forum for this? It is mainly to be practical in more remote areas rather than social, not that I am averse to being social. I am looking to do some routes that are moderate rather than hard, using a Yamaha 660Z.

Cheers.

I think you will find moderate routes in the Atlas far less remote than you imagine. Such tracks connect villages and are used by ancient transit vans and guys on mopeds or mules.
As back up you will also find the mobile phone signal much more widespread than parts of the UK, for example. A Maroc Telecom SIM costs from €2 (including that amount in credit). Get the guy in the shop to set it up for you and find out what the number is - not always obvious.
Depending on where you go April is also a busy time for tourists (compared to the cooler seasons I visit in) so you will encounter other riders.
The most stressful moment for a first timer is dealing with the immigration and heading out, but Nador (now with insurance sold in the port again) is relaxed and easy (compared to adjacent Melilla, from what I hear).
Fill up and have your first night's lodgings secured – after that it gets easier and easier.
