..well one of them anyway!

I've just read this month's BIKe magazine & there's a half page bit on Nick Sander's latest ride to Timbuktu. What particularly caught my eye was the yellow 1200GS in one of the photos, so I read on.

Mmm, it turns out 2 of the BMWs had chassis breakages!
OK, one was due to a crash but one was apparently from a rough section of road.

Must've been a very rough road I though to myself...but then as I read further Nick states 'the trip wasn't that arduous, I think next time I'll do it on my R1'

Do you recon they were overloaded or is the frame a weak design?
