Tyres - Morocco or Spain
Hi
I'm heading down to Cape Town, from the UK, via the western route. So Spain into Morocco
I will do a couple of thousand miles in Europe before crossing into Morocco so want to put new tyres and other consumables on my bike (04' F650GS Dakar)
I'm thinking I have about 3 possible scenarios
1- Get it all done on the Spanish coast before crossing
2- Get it done in Northern Morocco somewhere
3- Get it done about 800km before I cross in Spain, in my friends town (benefit is free accommodation, he speaks Spanish and I can arrange in advance)
What are people's thoughts? I'd like to leave it to the last opportunity as then they'll be fresher as I head south, but naturally I then expose myself to more risk by not having a chance to check its all been done properly, and or actually getting somewhere to do it
The tyres I'll most likely get are the usual TKC 80's as I've liked them before
Cheers in advance
Paul
