'Upon a summer wind there's a certain
melody' - Chris Rea
Morocco's Mohamad Ahansal (previous multi-winner of the MdS) has told me to worry more about 'Sand Winds' rather than the rain we had seen forecast for Ouarzazate next weekend. He said it wouldn't rain and that's good enough for me as last year he was spot on with his desert hailstorm prediction when we were hit on the day-off with a hideous downpour that nearly finished the race early.
When I first went to the race in 1999 the weather was always taken as being Super-Hot and nothing less was ever delivered. Now, well it's a pure lottery and I'm making sure I have my goggles armed and ready for a very SANDY MdS.
More tomorrow and 7 days to go...
