Morn'in..

Yip..getting closer..I'm almost prepped fully...just taking my time getting stuff sorted.

Not to worry if you leave it behind...there'll be plenty of time to fill it out over there whilst waiting around along with queues of 4x4's,other bikers and camping cars with only 3 customs staff to do it all :)

The last time I went through Tanger City I just did it myself...you're really paying them so you don't have to stand in a queue..in fact if you give me €10 I'll do it for you lol

Last time in Tanger Med there were no dudes...you just give the papers to the customs dudes and dander over to the police booth with your passport. Come back to the customs dudes and get your papers.

It'll take longer as we're in a group whereupon the new ones will have to be registered.

By now there might even be a dude available but I hope not as they're a pain in the neck... €2.00 is enough IMO for all that they do

I just have to throw on a back tyre tomorrow and get oil for an oil change then I'm good to go...

Welcome to Africa!... lol

Average manual worker,ie,waiter can earn about €5 per 8 or 9 hour shift in places...that's why they love to see tourists arrive as we still think in European pricing...they can make a months wages in a morning. Smiles and giving the odd pen out to the customs dudes helps.

What normally happens is they wave any motos to the front of the passenger vehicle queues as these are quicker to do.....but we'l see.

Hi Nick..some good typical trails I see there..!

Sorry to hear about the moto. If you need me to get one from a local KTM dealer and post it to you I can...just get me the precise part or part number?

Let us know all is well eventually

All the best

Keith.
