One of the most famous sections of the Atlas Mountain Race is the 100KM stretch of no resupply through the desert. Here riders meander through the Anti Atlas, climbing their way up to a plateau with stunning views of the network of canyons below. We meet riders chasing the snail here.We also hear from riders at Café Atlas in Ait Saoun which has become a popular stop for riders, and potentially the best omelette of the whole race.Riders featured in this episode: Zoe McIntosh — Cap 144Andy Dodd — Cap 61Julien Gravaud — Cap 89John Roe — Cap 184Cedric Henriot — Cap 98Roz Osborne — Cap 163Eoin Cocoran — Cap 205Julia Wuerzinger — Cap 232Erin Poland — Cap 308BJono Freeman — Cap 308ANeil Copeland — Cap 43Matthew Franklin — Cap 73Gala Giannini — Cap 81Dotwatch the 2026 Atlas Mountain RaceFollow us on Instagram @atlasmountainrace for daily visual & written updatesHosted and produced by Mel WebbSound design by Ben CrannellCover image by Nils Laengner Hosted on Acast.
