Itinerary description

Show original
Before 8am we left with 7 degrees... The cold is torture. In addition, the sun, being more to the west, rises a little later. And on top of that, it heats up, so it takes longer for our ally to warm up. We suffered, but we managed to overcome that moment after an hour and a half riding without exceeding 60km. And, above all, because there was not a town, village, city, town or human being that offered a precious hot tea. When leaving the oasis life changed. It was cold but more bearable.
Boring road. Toooodo endless straight lines, very boring, with no landscape to see, no animals. Okay, yes! some camel dead in the ditch. We repaired 2 times for calculations since we had plenty to arrive. Once in Dakhla we will spend 2 nights at the Dar Río Oro hotel, negotiating both nights. Parking for motorcycles.
Lunch-snack-dinner at Bahía restaurant where we throw the house out of the window, 450dh.
