It seems that running threads are the norm here, so I guess I'll start my own. Heading down Africa now with my Defender, Attenborough. I'll likely post photos mainly, but maybe the occasional story as I try to write more. At the moment I'm in The Gambia, and if one more guy tells me that my...

My introduction to off-road trails, or pistes as they're called in Morocco got off to, shall we say a rocky start. I chose the High Atlas Mountain piste MH1 as it fit nicely into my proposed route through the country and Morocco Overland promised that it was a "meaty crossing", which sounded...
