My wife and I did a 16 day trip to Morocco in June, made easier by being based in the south of France. So as not to take up photo space I have put the trip, mainly with pictures on this site: Morocco Blog.I hope this works and it is possible to read it!!!!

Thanks for the comments. Yes all the HDs made it home although one did need some work and was carried for the last day. The owner had been on several trips before and was known by the organisers. Apparently he uses it as a means of getting at least a new tyre fitted and some servicing!!!! One of the head bolts fell out at one point and the mechanic had to fashion another so on that day he was trailered to the night stop. He also had a very small fuel tank so had to be refueled twice by the support team, when we had longer stints between garages. Four bikes were dropped, mainly because of the bad roads or gravel at stopping points. No injuries but the odd scratch. The oldest rider was 75 and he came off in a town when he stopped at a junction, put his foot in a hole and could not hold the bike up. The seat cover is a Morino wool car child seat cover. Bought on Amazon. SWMBO found it very comfortable, especially on the long days.
