RDR expedition 12/2010

Intrudoction

When I hear cyclo-tour to Morocco It brings to my mind  two extraordinary weeks on wheels with Igor's company.Original idea came from Robert(Bagget).When he invited us to share his idea.The consequences  has divided us for two groups my self and Igor.Bagget and Josef(Dodo) have had to changed their flight tickets after Christmas 2010.We stuck with original plan.I felt pitty to split but two teams means two stories.Therefore adventure set off saturday 18/12/2010 from freezing Dublin.

Day 1

Once on a plane We were so looking forward to experience our first time out on bicycle expedition.Obviousely preparation was so ahead that I was packed with everithing from A-Z.No mention 10 kg overweight than Igor'

luggage.We have  met sound people on plane.Where we shared our holiday destinacions.Thanks got after landing we have got all our equipment out the front door of airport.Along setting bikes up we alreade made friends with local guards.It was nice first touch with natives.We left Airport towards Agadir after sunset. Cycling by pass a city one  of overtaking cars has lost a bicycle from its boot.

It landed right beside my self in midle of the road.I was so scared even hearing big lorry deadbreaking I tought that is my end.Luckely nothing happened.Igor riding 100m behaind me whent scared too.These crazy lads were at least polite and by overtaking said sorry.

As it was geting late so we pulled over to beach.We covered 40 km for first night ride.Searching for spot where to build a tent We notised ground is coverd with broken bottels everywhere,in fact.We were disgusted the way they treat the enviroment.Once the tent set we fallen asleep.

Day 2

At night was raining so morning was quite foggy.We got packed proparly and set off on road.Passing famouse bays for surfers we made some shopping.Basicly it was bread and water.Cycling foreward along coast a storm lashed Us with real heavy storm.Mainly we stoped only for break to eat or there was pucture to be repared.We were soaking wet.but later sun came out and we wre drying cloths on a way .After couple kilometers we stoped for lunch. It was first time experience to deal with local people.We have got tradicional food "tazin".It was so tasty I was very suprised.when we left a town Tamri there was pretty heavy climbe the hill.But after such good lunch we had lots of power.we managed to cycle just before the town Tamanar where we camped.
