Actually what you plan is quite feasible as long as the route you choose is not too extreme. For example Tulear Morombe or even Morondave. But in dry season of course. To import your own bike is prohibitive. But there's an excellent Chinese bike which is sold under the brand name New Mada. Brand new I believe around 1000 $ new. I am not a biker myself. But I know plenty of bikers, mostly French men. Just avoid the too extreme tracks. I know of a French man who disappeared in the brousse with his bike never to be seen again.

Posts: 133Motorbike in Mad
I thought I had I had seen the light this weekend. I was going to travel around Mada on a motorbike. At first it seemed like a great idea. The advantages are numerous:
1. No time constraints with flights / taxi-brousses. You can come / go whenever you like.
2. Ability to get off the beaten track and see places which you otherwise would not because of logistics.
2. Not having to backpedal to Tana every time but instead travel alternative routes around the country.
3. No suffering in crowded taxi-brousses.
4. No sweating. You are outside in open air.
Until I realised that the area I wanted to cruise in (Androy / Anosy) is largely a 'zone rouge' meaning they are part of the 1/3 of the country where there is near no government presence / authority and where Dahalo rustlers roam the countryside. The chances of us meeting them in the cities we visit are near zero but we tend to forget they are there.
Also there is a serious famine in the south now in the area between Tulear and Fort Dauphin. People are dying.

But if you read every post of mine very careful you'll eventually find it.
So start digging in the forum. Yes. Madagascar. You have to earn it to live there.

The island is best suited to pirates, fugitives, ex legionnaires, soldiers of fortune, outlaws. You'll feel like you're in paradise. Pussies stay at home.

Posts: 297I have heard that the whole country is not raining in November, through January. Certain parts of the country are dry. Is mada one of those.
Countries where you need a return flight out. I heard there was an app for making fake reservations. Can someone please inform me on this? I am really anxious to to. Might even look for work there. Guess its time to start learning French.

Don't be so scary to the easily faint heart People. Neddy! Health risk issues are just as they used to bee.
My agent just confirmed me a Air France flight for 1100 Euros that fits a low budget too.
Mora mora. Salama.
Inshalla.
