The beauty of it lies in their absurd determination to transform themselves into the glossy photograph they see in a glossy magazine, igniting a spark of desire within their imagination. Consumed by the promise that the photograph holds, they set out to achieve everything it symbolizes: the experiences, the life journey, the redefinition of their already long lives, the change they seek, and the fast-track to the achievement that the young adventurers in the glossy photograph exemplify. It is an absurd notion, driven solely by the desire for adventure.

Three quickly became five guys on heritage motorcycles, joining forces with an ex-Special Forces operative and a combat zone photographer to make it seven for a safari across the top of Africa. From Spain to Tangier, they traversed the Riff, navigated the Atlas Mountains, circled Cirque du Jaffar, and rode through the Gorges du Ziz. The rough-riding across Morocco was an exhilarating experience, with wild camping along the way under a star-spattered sky, in unforgiving terrain where luxury was a warm sleeping bag. In places where caution is essential, and changing coordinates on a rapid basis is crucial, they navigated with determination.

Through the highs and lows, they encountered the warmth of a Moroccan welcome that exceeded the heat from black coffee, honeyed mint teas, or a meal from a hot tajine. As they reached the sands of the Sahara at Erg Chebbi, they witnessed a breathtaking new dawn rise, marking the end of an extraordinary journey.
