The day began with everyone invited to meet up for breakfast at the MOTOBOX Piaggio, Vespa, Aprilia and Moto Guzzi store in Casablanca, before setting off for a parade through the city streets, down the main boulevards and past Casablanca’s most important monuments, and stopping in front of the spectacular Hassan II mosque, Morocco’s largest mosque and the third-largest in the world (on the left in the background image to this article); the Vespa procession then left the city for a 30 km ride to Dar Bouazza, a well-known coastal resort, where they had lunch at a popular restaurant.

Among the riders interviewed by press and TV were Mohamed Hilmi, President of the national motorcyclist association, and Abderazzak Mreka, President of the national association of two-wheeler enthusiasts. They both stressed the importance of following road safety rules. A message that is always worth hearing, intended above all for younger riders, including those taking part in the rally, which took place on Saturday 16 September 2017.
The event was covered by the local press and TV news channels. Here is the 2MTV report:
