BMW GS Safari Enduro

This entry is part 21 of 22 in the series Adventure Rider Issue #2

How much must BMW love adventure riders? Building bikes is one thing, but organising and running rides like the GS Safari shows a huge commitment to our sport. And when it seems it just couldn’t get much better, the company stretches out and offers even more. The GS Safari Enduro.

The BMW Safaris kicked off in 1994, and the idea was to offer BMW owners a five day ride with the infrastructure to make the week-long exercise stress-free. There was lots of flexibility built in for a stack of variables, and the event was a success. It rocketed along, gaining momentum every year, until 2005 when numbers became a little too large, and the decision was taken to split the Safari into two events –the TS Safari and the GS Safari. The TS had panniers, top boxes, pillions and sensational roads. The GS had solo riders who were looking for more adventure and liked to get off-road. Splitting the two Safaris meant each group could have routes dedicated to the type of riding it enjoyed most.
