Exploring away from the familiar routes and adapting to the local rhythm led to some of the standout moments for Alex, Sales Manager for Benelux & Scandinavia.
During the trip, he joined the Morocco office in scouting new gravel routes for a key adventure partner, heading from the Atlas and Anti-Atlas Mountains down to Taroudant by dirt tracks, and then on to Agadir.
‘Many of these tracks don’t even show up on apps like Strava or Garmin, so it was very much local insight and on-the-ground expertise in real time that made it possible,’ Alex shared. ‘It honestly made for one of the most exciting adventures of my life and that’s saying something seeing as I’ve lived in Myanmar for seven years!’
He was especially fond of interactions he had with local villagers facilitated by our local teams, which he credits as being some of the most memorable parts of the trip.
