GS Preparation
by Admin 28th August 2008, 20:25
ADMIN got this from Bruno:
"Bruno Gila and Anthony Page (Club members) invite all BMW GS BEGINNERS on an approx.100km off-road ride on Sunday 31st August.
Starting at 7h30 sharp from Atterbury Shell garage and riding to Cullinan where we will ride back to Rayton all off-road to end up at Rhino Park for those that want to do some sand riding. Entrance fee at Rhino is R50 per person.
Anyone who wants to improve their off-road riding skills and complete novices are welcome and we will be riding slowly the whole way with some instructions and help from the more experienced riders. You don't have to be doing the GS Challenge to ride with.
Please note that riders must have complete protective gear on and have their own water supply.
Looking forward to see you all there!"

Please note:
This Prep Ride (Sunday 31st) DOES NOT REPLACE the Club GS Practice Ride of the 7th September.
So there are many opportunities to take those GS's to the gravel!

Thanks for clearing this up. Thought I had my dates mixed up as I understood this was going to happen on 7th when the road guys went to Milly's.

Johan Spies, friend and colleague of Marius, joined Bruno’s GS prep Ride last Sunday.
He commended the Club on a well organised event and was impressed with the professional approach to GS riding.
He sends a special word of thanks to Bruno for all the advise and for making this an unforgettable ride.
Let’s hope we see Johan around at the Club soon!
Oh and yes, Marius went out on my 800GS (guess I have to say 'OUR' 800GS as I find myself referring to 'OUR' 1200GS )
and he is particularly please with how the 800 handled the rough roads.
I can't wait!!
