The Ticket To Freedom
Playboy South Africa|September 2017

Take a sneak peek at the all-new BMW 1200 GS and Adventure models that’ll have you sailing through just about any obstacle like a pro.

The Ticket To Freedom

Whenever I get invited to a BMW press launch event I get excited. I get flashbacks of all the amazing times I’ve attended in the past and relive memories of some of the greatest bikes I’ve gotten to ride at those events. I also wonder to myself, how could they possibly improve on the near close to perfection that is their press events and the way they host, and allow, and plan, for the press to experience said new bike to the max.

The GS launch set a new bar in my eyes. We arrived at the BMW rider training centre in Zwartkops and were given our press packs and a nice sit-down presentation on the 37 years of GS history and a further update and walk-through of the new bike and the features we could expect to enjoy on the ride over the next two days.
