hi,
I am doing the same way but starting in April?

:-D Hi Hans,

nice to meet you here as well :-) As i already posted in "Wüstenschiff"-Forum, april is too late for me unfortunately.

I'm riding my 650 strom from Holland to Kenia at the end of January 2016, I'm interested in joining.

I like to do a few weeks in Morocco and hopefully (depending on the weather) ride as much of the Atlas mountains as possible. My route is not really planned, just get to Kenia.

Hi,

I am also headed to Cape Town from the UK via the West coast, departing January 2016

hey digger1,

welcome to the west coast party!

Any concrete dates that you both are taking the ferry to Morocco?

Thanks,

No dates booked, I can be flexiable when I depart.

wrote you an email!

might be starting at the same time from germany.
would be nice to compare the planned route and plannings etc.

I'm flexible in dates too. My aim is to be in Gibraltar as early at the end of January as possible, depends on my job, preparing my bike and renting out my house and/or moving my stuff.

I have a stopover for about two days in Algeciras to change my tires into more dirt orientated ones. Then cross to Tanger med.

From Tanger med. I have no fixed plan, now that's freedom! Just zigzag Morocco and than into Mauritania.

I'm in the fase of applying for a carnet de passage etc.

Sorry, forgot to mention, that i´m going for the east-route...

good to hear i´m not the only one riding a motorcycle through afrika :-)
but unfortunately at the other end of the continent...

What's your route mazofau? Perhaps this could be me route back home from Kenya.

I need one more post that i am allowed to send private messages, so here it is ;-)

East-west
 

Hey, I looked at going via the east but it seemed too difficult (currently in Georgia/Turkey and heading to Africa). Think I'll be in Morocco around Christmas time but could be convinced to go east if someone had more luck than I did figuring it out. Also, you guys going east - brrrrrr gotta ride across Europe and Turkey in January? A bit cold...

Cheers
