Hi JohnnyBoxer,
Just to clarify, this weekend is not a BMW marketing thing at all.
I’m a long-term GS owner and experienced ‘adventure’ traveller, putting together a video about adventure motorcycling and I need a few other likeminded people to join in to make the video storyline work.
My request for GS riders on this site is entirely due to the assumption (always dangerous - I know!) about what members all ride in the Club. My interest in having both sexes in the video is based on the fact I’ve met some awesome lady riders while travelling over the years and I’d like to promote the idea to other ladies too - I have 2 daughters, both converts to the ‘cause’.
Part of the weekend activities for me and anyone who is interested, will include the review of an Adventure Motorcycle Packing system, I have done such testing before for other products. Please note the packing system is not available for sale, it is at an early ‘prototype’ stage (built around the Touratech panniers for now) and is asking for feedback, which is where the funds to offer cover for basic (fuel) costs and provide refreshments comes from and I’m happy to share that with anyone else who is able to attend.
I’m hoping that all who can attend have a fun weekend and enjoy the video when produced. A copy will be made available to all participants and it is NOT being sold as a product in its own right.
Hope that clarifies some of the background of the offer to other Club members? Happy to take other any other questions?
Thanks
