Wow!
What an event, we took 50 riders from Marrakesh, down to the majestic dunes of Erg Chebbi in Merzouga, then back up through the national park of Ifrane to Fes.
With over 30 riders tackling the Trail Edition, riding through the desert, through river beds, up long steep mountain passes and across the dunes this was an epic adventure.
The Tarmac Edition saw riders hit the heights of the High Atlas mountain range, ride some incredible mountain switchbacks, cross the desert to get to the “Bond Volcano” film location and have adventures of their own getting across, round and through some of the many washed out roads.
This was the first edition of the Morocco 1500 and we are truly proud of each and every participant. Our team included the HGV drivers who got all the bikes, kit and spares safely out and back to Morocco, the mechanics on hand to assist with bike maintenance and fixes, the ride hosts who rode with the participants every step of the way, the medics who were on hand to provide help if called upon and the 4×4 team who took their vehicles everywhere the bikes went.
Special thanks to our friends at Indian Motorcycle for the loan of the all new Super Scout 1250, ridden by Jarla one of our ride hosts, the bike handled everything thrown at it with great aplomb.
We are already planning the Morocco 1500 2025 edition.
