Yes, though I'd say the map isn't particularly accurate. There's not many roads in the area and as long as you turn south before Tounfite and head for Imilchil you should be OK. Awesome road!

MA3 (Reverse) All clear some damage from recent rains but pretty easy really

MA6 (Reverse) All clear, Tarmac is encroaching at either end, there is now Tarmac from KM104 to Akka Ighane. We started on MA9 so can't report on the last MA6 section. Tramac is also maing its way across the Issil Plains. Tried to run north from the Tazenahkt road upto MH9 using a track on OSM's latest, got tp 2-3km from tying up when it disappeared into a goat track

MH7 Fan - bloody - tastic, some damage from the recent rains but with navigator directing we got through the washed out sections. Tarmac starts at KM104 but otherwise by the Book!

Just done the MS Route from Zagora to Rissani but cant remember the number. All route ok but crossing the oued ziz was not possible due to water levels and mud so we stayed on the west of the river and headed north (annoying some moped faux guides as we did and crossed further up, find you way north to a small village then follow the piste east across the ziz. Marked on Olaf so should be clear which one

Water levels should drop in a few days and the mud dry out

ME4 great route but almost every river crossing is out by the end of along day I was sick of it. LOt of thanks to the mystery truck tracks we followed, I'm guessing it was a beast by some of the route choices. Not one for a 2WD at the moment

Thanks for all the updates, TW. ME4 in the rain sounds like hard work. Even in the dry it took some negotiating. Point us to some pix when you get a chance.

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.
