what would you say about the traffic on these pistes:
1.Atar> Tidjikja
2.Tidjikja>Tichit>Oulata>Nema

Hi Tomek, There is traffic on all these pistes (less between Tichit and Oualata) but it is sporadic and especially so since the collapse in tourism. Plus, as the tracks sometimes diverge or vary according to the sand, you cannot rely on anyone being along to help. Basically it's between you, the cameleers and the djinn...

Incidentally, Nema is still thought risky from a security point of view.

P.S. Great photos.

Thank you, though for most of them credit should go to Andy, Heather, Henrik, Neil and Shaun – the riders in the pics.
