MOROCCO - locked up for 6 months - motorcycle adventures on Yamaha Ténéré 700’s - S2E1

The idea was to spend 3 weeks in Morocco during our motorcycle journey from The Netherlands to South Africa. We ended up spending 6 months in Morocco and explored as much as we could on our Yamaha Ténéré 700’s.
From plowing through the sand of old Dakar Rally tracks in the Sahara Desert to scrambling around on off road passes in the Atlas Mountains. Meanwhile we are immersed in a world of ancient traditions, which makes us feel we are far away from home already in the first African country we visit.
It might be the best country in the world to indulge yourself as an adventure rider.
Welcome to this wonderful motorcycle walhalla. Welcome to Morocco!

ABOUT US
Hi there and welcome to the motorcycle adventures of Jessica and Maarten! It started with the idea to ride motorcycles from our hometown in The Netherlands all the way down to Cape Town in South Africa. In december 2020 we started our journey on our Yamaha Ténéré 700’s. Morocco was the first African country we visited. Due to closed borders we could not travel further south from there. We turned things around and shipped our bikes to Cape Town. From here we will ride up north. Follow our journey through Africa here on KZread!
