How's my 5-6 week plan look so far?

So I have been doing a bit of research in an attempt to make a basic plan for my next month or so in Morocco and I wanted to ask for some feedback from people who have done it. I started reading about all of the pistes, but found myself being slightly lost in the sense that I didn't know which I should take and which direction because I didn't have a sense of my overall route, so I decided that it would be best to sort out a basic route and then figure out which pistes to take from there.

I'm starting a major trip down Africa, so this is just the first leg and the timeline is pretty open, but I figure that 5 or so weeks should do me for Morocco before heading to Western Sahara and Mauritania.

Tangier (Entry)
Chefchaouen
Fez
Meknes
Midelt
Merzouga (Erg Chebbi)
Dadès Gorge (Boumalne to Msemrir)
Ourzazate
Zigora/M'Hamid (Erg Chigaga) Worth doing after Erg Chebbi?
Ait Benhaddou
Marrakech
Rabat (Visa for Mauritania)
Casablanca (maybe)
Mirleft or Sidi Ifni
Tarfaya
Dakhla
Western Sahara



Any feedback welcome. Does this look practical in the timeframe? Am I potentially going to miss anything that I MUST see. Also as I do my piste homework once I get some feedback here, I'll keep posting, but any suggestions that are on/off the route that can't be missed would be appreciated.

Also for what it's worth, I'll not be on a bike..



Cheers,

Tony

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
