 I think this is one of the strongest winds we've ever encountered, it's like nearly undriveable. Hi, I'm Lavi and this is Oli. We are attempting a new Guinness World Record to become the youngest pair to circumnavigate the globe by motorcycle. After riding 3000 miles across Europe, we are now ready to explore the roads of North Africa. Click the subscribe button to follow our journey around the world and let the adventure begin. Good morning world, welcome back to the channel, it's day number 71 on our round the world trip. So we are here near Form Asaka on the Atlantic coast of Morocco and we just had a camp right next to the ocean just off the beach. In this small village here. Okay, we spoke to a couple of people last night around and they said it was absolutely fine to just camp here in this spot here next to the beach. And they all seemed really chilled, super cool. And they were just doing some fishing and it was all nice. So let me show you guys where we're heading today. Okay, so we are right down at the bottom here at Form Asaka. And today we are going to be heading over to Gilmeme and then making our way down the route national one. Pass the edge of the map and as far as we can go. So basically the mission now is to head south. South, south, south we have 1500 miles to reach Dakar to reach a shipping container where Bumblebee is going to be shipped to Rio de Janeiro. So we have a long way to go. So we don't really know where we end up tonight, we will just try and see how far we can get. It's already 8.20 so better hit the road, let's go. Goodbye Atlantic Ocean. It's a nice and cool morning. It's like 19 degrees, it's unbelievable. So Lavi's just walked up a little bit. I'm going to go and pick her up and then we've got a little bit of bumpy dirt road to get back to the main road. But then we're on our way. Alright, hit the road. Day 71, let's go. I'm going to try and stay on this side. Just going to stand up a little bit. All good. So there's the house of the military post. Checking for contraband coming up the coast. And there's one of their guard dogs. Uh oh, uh oh. Got to get away from that. Yeah it's a little bit of a bumpy road from here to the main road. Just trying to avoid the biggest and sharpest of the rocks. What a beautiful way to start the day. Look at this landscape. Back on the road. Here we go. Some sheep this morning on the road and some goats. Hello guys. Good morning. The car didn't give me too much space. Oh my god. Oh that's the guardian dog for the herd. Oh my god. That's something we always have to look out for is that there's a lot of herds out here that have like a dog or two dogs that are actually living with them to guard them. So you really don't want to go and stroke them and don't want to mess with them. So we're heading over now to Gelmeme which is a town a little bit further inland. And uh that should take us to the Route Nationale 1. That's the name of the highway that basically runs all the way down the coast as far as you can go pretty much until we reach the border of Mauritania. So as soon as we hit that highway it's just like straight straight straight for like I don't know 800 miles. Oh I mean this is really cool. We didn't see like this scale of cactus falling before. That's amazing. 1,999.9. 5,000. Breaking Gelmeme. We've arrived here in town. Bought some fresh bread. And we're gonna be hitting the Route Nationale from Gelmeme heading south. Good day. Nice fresh bread hey. The best 20 cents spent today. So we've fuelled up. We've refreshed in Gelmeme. And now we've hit the Route Nationale 1. It's pretty much straight on this road. No turns. So now it's just a game of making distance. So our next stop is gonna be Tan Tan which is in about 77 miles and there we're gonna stop for our lunch break. So let's go. Whoa. Look at this vast open landscape in front. From desert to a town. It looks like we're coming into Tan Tan now. After 109 miles on the road already. And then suddenly in the middle of this pretty barren wasteland there's a roundabout with two giant camel sculptures. Wow nice. Look at this. Awesome. And then I think here's the Gendarmerie. The police coming into the town. Ah. Bonjour. Hello. How are you? How are you? I'm a little bit. What's your destination? Continuing south towards Laun. Laun. Yes. 195 miles. Merci. I was surprised. That was the first time we've ever been stopped by the police. Normally they just wave us through but yeah he just asked us the destination. So we had a nice lunch there at this petrol station slash road house truck stop. We had a couple of coffees. We had some eggs and a Moroccan salad. So that was a good rest stop before we head back out into the desert. So we also checked on Ayah Overlander for a spot where we might be able to pitch our tent tonight. And we found one place or lovey found one place which is 70 miles away. A guy has inputted it and he said that it's actually in front of a police station and he went and asked the police and they said it was absolutely fine for him to camp there next to the ocean in front of the police station. Just left Tan Tan and this really looks like a wasteland in front. Just a massive expanse. Look at that. I don't know if I've ever seen a view as alive as big as this. And it is super, super windy here. I mean, I don't know if you can see the angle of the bike at the moment but this wind is just smashing us from this side as the wind blows in from the coast. Wow. I think this is one of the strongest winds we've ever encountered. This is like, it's like nearly undrivable. I'm not even going fast. I'm going like just over 50 miles an hour. Oh my God. I see you can see the massive drop-off of the cliffs just there. Whoa. What a spot, hey? Perfect place for a nap. Coming right down to the beach now. Cool. Look at that. I guess another police or military control here. They might wave a spast anyway. Hello. Hello. Hello. Accinir. Yes. Okay, thanks. Thank you. Yeah, so that's police stop number two of the day but this time they actually wanted to see our documentation. So that's actually the first time that's happened since we've been here. So it looks like security starts to heat up the further south that you get and then they asked where we were going to sleep tonight and we said in this town in 11 miles, Accinir and they sort of were like, um, in a hotel and we were like, we didn't want to tell them that we were actually going to ask to camp behind the police station. And they might be the police from that police station so we might see them later. Okay, it looks like we're coming into Accinir. It's not a very big place. It's really, really small. It's like just a cluster of buildings in the middle of nowhere on the edge of the coast. So now we're heading for the Gendarmari Royal, the police station situated in front of the ocean and if they're nice enough they will let us camp. Gendarmari Royal. Oh wait. It's the place. Awesome. Well, we just went inside, spoke to the guy inside and he pointed out that place just behind the police station and said, yep, just over by this red building, if you head over there and pitch up the tent or this red building right here he said it's no problem. So that is absolutely awesome. So we go round here. How's that? Nice. Look over here. Look at this. There's like a whole beach here. Tons of kids playing. Good evening guys. We made it, happy and alive. Yeah. We're here with our tent set up in the small town of Acfenir right in front of the Atlantic Ocean. Look at that. Pretty cool spot for tonight. So it's awesome to be making progress down the coast, getting down there making our way down to Dakar but that wind today was absolutely crazy. It was not very nice and comfortable being pushed from the wind always a little bit to the side and I don't know, it's just really scary because it's like when you feel like, oh my god, okay. Yeah, it was definitely a big challenge to have to always be battling that hour after hour so let's hope that that doesn't continue all the way down the coast. So we ended up doing 170 miles which is about 270 kilometers we will try to push it a little bit further tomorrow so fingers crossed for the wind but yeah, that's it from us today we hope you enjoyed the episode if so please give us a thumbs up subscribe to the channel share the video with your friends and family and comment below.
