Having had a BMW K100RT previously I have not owned a BMW for quite a number of years. I have been commuting on a daily basis with a small Japanese bike, but recently bought my dream bike, a 2012 F800GS. I look forward to learning a lot from this site and its members.

I live in Napier, close to Bredasdorp. I am brand new to the motorbike world and still learning how to use my Enduro properly. I am engaged, will get married in August and have 7 dogs & 2 cats. The bike is not only for play but also for work, getting from here to there without any fuss.

Currently when not working weekends, looking for a small adventure. Not new to riding, but finding my feet on a dual sport. Wesley
