Engines stir the dry air as the Marrakech outskirts drop away and the stony Agafay plain opens like a raw, wind-sculpted page. Riders on CF Moto 520s cut across packed reg—rock and hardpan tracks that shift from flat, fast runs to rutted gullies—while the atlas foothills watch on the horizon.

Closed-toe, grippy shoes
