The toughest GS Safari ever

The BMW GS Safari Enduro kicked off in Bourke, NSW, last month, with 110 riders embarking on an incredible adventure following the Darling River from its headwaters in central New South Wales to the mouth of the Murray in South Australia.Riders were taken to the heart of Australia’s agricultural past to experience the ultimate outback adventure. The Darling-Murray River run provided riders with a lifetime of friendships and memories.

In true GS Safari style, riders were faced with challenging terrain, open plains and an abundance of wildlife.

The group travelled north towards the famous border track, following the Murray River to Victor Harbor in South Australia. The ride was a scenic run, criss-crossing the Murray all the way to the mouth, where participants were able to smell the salt air and see the Murray flowing into the ocean after six days of dusty outback riding.
