I spent a few months in Morocco myself back in the early 90's... Mostly surfing in Taghazout (just north of Agadir)... Essaouira is a cool wee town too.
Hired a car in Marrakech then drove over the mountains and down the Draa valley (where Laurence of Arabia was filmed... really spectacular scenery!) into the desert... Made it way on past Zagora (close to the Algerian border.) but got told to go home by men with AK's... I had to give one of them the T-shirt I was wearing!!!!
The Trans-Siberian Express to Beijing is one trip that I would really love to do sometime… I will be doing it sometime in the next 2 or 3 years for sure! I’d love to hear more about that… Hopefully I will run into you sometime in the MTB!
