Avoid Egypt. Bureaucracy is terrible and the authorities and inhabitants will see you as a cash dispenser and try and take as much money from you as they can.

Tunisia-Algeria-Niger is more interesting than the Atlantic route but/and includes less countries so is quicker.

Sam.

There's always Tunisia-Libya-Algeria - but a bit of a paperwork/finances headache.

Hi!

Karellevrau,
I dont know the date yet,aprox. mid NOV to mid Dec
I'll be on the bike(hopefully)
Most likely on BMW GS650,i'm all so fascinated by GS1150Adventure but i think it's just to big for me,but I'll give it a test ride and make a final desicion.

cheers
