Morocco: emergency tyre caches in Ouarzazate and Azrou
I have established caches of part-worn tyres in Ouarzazate and Azrou. These are suitable for GS1200 and earlier models and are intended for emergency use as a way of getting travellers back to Spain or, with gentle riding, even to the UK.
AZROU - contact Nathan Sefiane at Childrens Haven, Ougmes (road to Ifrane)
GPS N33 26.939 W5 10.113, tel: 00212.63.51.36.69
1 x front and 1 x rear TKC80
Nathan works at the orphanage and I suggest a contribution to their funds of AT LEAST €30 front or €40 rear.
OUARZAZATE - contact Peter Buitelaar at BikersHome (Zagora road out of Ouarzazate)
GPS N30 53.864 W6 54.083, tel 00212.707.856.40 www.bikershome.net
1 x front and 1 x rear Tourances
1 x front and 2 x rear TKC80s
I have suggested to Peter he charges €30 to €40 per tyre to cover storage and hassle.
I have done this because the GS is an unusual size tyre. If you have a bike with unusual sized tyres, please consider leaving your old tyres with Peter or Nathan.
