Hey Tim;
Not sure about Timbuctu, but we're leaving France for the transaf via the Atlantic route also starting mid Oct. We'll be in an Iveco Daily 4x4 so travelling slowly. Maybe our paths will cross, during the visa wait at Casa/Rabat?
Gazza, you'd get bored waiting for us, but if we meet near the beach section in Mori, I'd be happy to carry extra petrol in return for someone scouting for hard ground (5 tonnes of camper is a bastard to get unstuck)
We'll talk more about routes closer to departure time.
Happy trails
Luke

Hi Fellow trans Africa treckers,There are quite a nimber of us going around this time , both on bikes and 4 wheels.
Maybe we should all get together a month before the depeture date and have a few beers and chat etc.
Hi Luke, will have to let you know about the beach strech but it sounds like a great idea,
Cheers to all ,
Gazzzzza,
