Say you have 2 weeks, possibly as much as 3, including one day of flight in and out of spain and possible overnight in both directions on the spanish main land (bikes will be shipped and stored in Alicante awaiting our arrival, and dropped off on our return - no crating necesssary, just leave the keys and go).
If you were starting and ending in Alicante. if you were riding a Tenere 700 Rally with your girlfriend tagging along on a KTM 390 Adventure - with her having no prior offroad experience and one tear riding experience - but a ton of guts (she is a major in the military). What would you change on this itinerary?
I am conscidering entering Morocco via Melilla and Exiting via Ceuta - for both logisitsical reasons and for not having to cover the same ground twice. I am open for other options as long as the trip becomes better.
I've only been in Morocco once - and then rushed it as it was in a rally to Guinea Bissau (entered Morocco via Ceuta and headed straight for the Atlas, then down to Merzouga, offroad through the desert, rode vest on some pistes under construction, then south into western shara. All in about 4 days if I can remember correctly.
On this trip I want some easy riding, some offroad, some pistes, some cities, some romance, some relaxation, some sightseeing, some city markets, some comfort - and a ton of adventure. Atlas mountains and Merzouga again for sure.
When I was far younger, I once rode with a girl from Cape Town to Nairobi - it was her first time ever riding a motorbike besides her test. I have no worries about my GF learning on the fly in Morocco - it is as good of a place as any. I am also somewhat experienced in managing long distance adventure rides to suit beginner riders - including the hard stuff.
