3-5 years

My name is Timothy Reid. I am 41 years old and married with 2 kids.

I had a TZR 50 when I was at school. After I left school I had a KLR 650 for 2 years which I sold.

I haven't been on a bike for the last 20 years but always yearned to get one again. So last year I took the plunge and bought a pre owned 2018 BMW F800 GS Adventure which I am absolutely loving.

I want to do more off road based riding and have already enrolled for my first Country Trax training session in March and am planning on doing the next course in June in Touws River.

Hi 

My name is André van Heerden. I work on a ship as a marine engineer. I used to ride a GS650 about ten years ago, and recently bought a F800 GSA. I am really looking forward to doing a few rides with some fellow enthusiasts!

I am an ex-offroad and enduro Western Province Champ; achieved on smaller bikes like the KTM 200 and Husqvarna 250TE and have swapped those dirty and exhilarating days for life on a BMW...

I have not looked back once, after getting hooked on Adventure riding! 

I went from a GS650 (which I rode for 3 months only), to an upgraded version, the F800 and after owning 2 of them I haven't needed any other till I just recently found and bought my 4th BMW and my dream bike...

The BMW F800 GSA and I am loving every second I am riding, while smiling from ear to ear!

HERE's TO MAKING LIFE A RIDE!

Hi, my name is Gareth, and after taking a long break from the biking world I have decided to get back into it and explore the world of adventure biking. I last rode a bike about 7 yrs ago and that was only for about 18 months. I started on a 125cc, then a Honda CBR400cc. I've also ridden the BMW GS650 and the Suzuki VStrom as a support bike for the two oceans marathon. I've just got myself a new F800GSA and would like to do some training to make sure I don't pick up any bad habits. I'm married with two children ages 5 & 9.
