After having fun in the Sand we head towards the High Atlas area. We head to Bikers Home https://www.bikershome.net/, It's a B&B style home with a free garage to use if you stay. Run by a very funny Dutch guy Peter.
He loved our bikes and offered us good money for all three TTR's and flights home. Was very tempting but we all wanted to carry on with our trip. I believe he has now bought some TTR's and is running tours on them.
Peter orders us some engine oil for all the TTR's and fork seals for one. Also we had to strip the carbs out of one as it somehow managed to take in some sand.
During the night a guy arrives on a highly modified bmw. His friends xt has snapped a chain, Peter sells him a chain and he goes off again into the night.

We had enough stuff in our firstaid kit to deal with it.
