Lisbon Dakar 1º big one
 

Hi To all
In 2010 Jan Feb. i am planning to do my first big one.
My bike is a Dominator nx 650 in good shape..
In 2007 Jan i was in Marroco for 7 days in witch i spend all my time riding with no time to really apreciate the culture and to do same off road in marroco pista ( now i really sorry for it).
I am reading the one of Chris Scot books then i am going to start with Sahara Overland to check more info and check on the pist´s.
This time i am planning a 3 weeks trip to Dakar , but my big questions are:
Wath are the best pists to do ( but i am not a off road expert )?
wath are the best borders to pass?
Is it to short to do it in 21 days?
Is it better to travel to dakar in no warry and then put the bike on the a boat? or in a plane?
How mutch will it cost, to send the bike home and the wath are the companies that i should contact?
is it save to camp on Marroco, mauritanea and dakar (if yes send me the GPS points of campings if possible )? or i should get or look for acomodations?
wath are the best acomodatiosn for lowest price? GPS points?
Wath are the best places to go on this trip?
How many km shoul i expect to do?
wath are the best maps ?
Is there any routs allready in gps ?
Thanks to all

Regards

Alex
