Video: “Into the Rift” – The story of the Atlas Mountain Race

To simply finish the Atlas Mountain Race is a huge accomplishment. The race covers 1,200 kilometers of the most rugged and remote roads in Morocco. Riders traverse gravel paths from Marrakech to the Atlantic coast, climbing a staggering 25,000 meters of elevation on the way. Past snow-capped peaks and through blazing hot desert, all under the eight-day time limit.
