What kind of question is that? A plan to leave Ireland for Morocco in December or January won't support definitive conclusions of sanity or insanity on its own. Should you steadfastly refuse to adopt to the obvious seasonal limitations, well, that might tip the balance toward "crazy."
You'll have to dress warmly, leave extra time to compensate for short days and stretches of miserable weather, and bring along a healthy dose of masochism. You'll also have to scale back any ambitions of rambling carelessly in the high Atlas, or lounging around half-nekkid on beaches. You might luck out on conditions--but then again you might not, so you'll need to respond flexibly.
I toured Morocco during exactly that period six or eight years ago. It was fine. Sometimes I got cold, and sometimes I rode--against all advice--after dark.
Caveat: mileage varies, so please don't blame me.
Hope that's helpful.
