Following a wet and soggy Friday, we awoke on Saturday to find the sun returned and barring a few minor showers we managed to keep our waterproofs in the trusty Skedaddle Landy, for this mountain bike weekend!!
As usual Alasdair and Andy were at the helm, with new Skedaddle guide Annie enjoying her baptism of dreadful puns, sacrasm and white lies about the ‘cheeky climbs’ and how long there was to go. Straws, following his ‘tea-cup washing disaster’, was one handed driver / picnic maestro for the weekend - bless !!!
As you can see from the photos, it was a busy ole weekend, with many riders using it as a ‘build-up’ ride before heading out on their mountain bike holidays / cycling holidays with us, and here’s hoping that everyones bums aren’t too sore from the riding and the red-hot Thai curries on the Saturday night!!

This superb desert biking adventure focuses on the deep south of Morocco, a land of big skies and stark mountain ranges where mud-brick kasbahs appear to rise up out of the desert, sitting in tranquil palm oases and framed by dramatic backdrops of snowcapped mountains. We ride along Morocco’s dirt roads, taking us from Marrakech to the Tichka Pass, the highest in the High Atlas, and then southward, descending along the Draa Valley to the fringes of the Sahara Desert.
