Scram Africa 2015 is a unique adventure, only for nostalgic riders
Barcelone, Catalonia, Spain
For a select group of riders in Barcelona, riding classic motorcycles and racers is more than just exhibiting them on the café terraces.

Here's an idea...Get your scramblers and your hot rodders and go ride in the middle of the Sahara. That's #ScramAfrica
Picture yourself rolling in open landscape between Algeria and Morocco on board your retro or neo-retro motorcycle.
Imagine traveling in the desert with a crew of classic motorcycle riders with only the growling sound of four-strokes to guide you.

In it's 4th year, Scram Africa was dreamt up and is organized by Fuel Motorcycles, it's an ultimate road trip spanning 2,000 km to the south of Morocco for roads and desert trails open exclusively to classical and neo-classical bikes.
Fuel builds bespoke motorcycles inspired by the golden age of the International Six Days Trials where motorcycles were completely stripped of everything superfluous. Tight fit to on-road and off-road, the motorcycles demonstrate beautiful craftsmanship and style from streamlined gas tanks and long mufflers, to custom handlebars complete with motogadgets and beautiful spoked wheels shod with performance tires.
Cleary, if you think these bikes are for show, you are on the wrong track. Scram Africa is specifically designed to beat the shit of these motorcycles on dirt roads, tracks and dunes. Each bike is born and perfected year after year to deal with the grueling adventure.

Scram Africa 2015 stated on Tuesday, April 21, 2015 in Barcelona, departing from the Barcelona-Tanger Ferry at 17:00, returning to the same on Sunday, May 3rd, 2015.
Each rider pays € 1700 to participate and more to rent. Add a bit more still to have Fuel Motorcycles build a custom purpose classic to take on the Sahara.
