Garmisch-Partenkirchen calls!
Munich/Garmisch-Partenkirchen. From July 3rd – 5th Garmisch-Partenkirchen will once again be transformed into the Mecca of BMW motorcycle fans. During this time, BMW motorcyclists will meet for the ninth time to party in Bavarian style. Over 34,000 visitors found their way to the BMW Motorrad Days last year and numerous riders and friends of all motorcycle brands are once again expected this year.
At the world’s biggest motorcycle meet in Garmisch-Partenkirchen with its picturesque mountain backdrop, visitors can once expect a packed program of entertainment this year.
One of the highlights is without doubt the Team BMW Motorrad Motorsport, which as of this year is entering the World Superbike Championship with the racing version of the S 1000 RR. Motorcycling fans will be able to get up close to the team of Berthold Hauser, Head of BMW Motorrad Motorsport, including the two riders Troy Corser (Australia) and Ruben Xaus (Spain), with autograph and photo sessions. What is more, the serial production version of the S 1000 RR will be presented to the general public for the very first time at the BMW Motorrad Days.
In the Freestyle Area, motorcycling acrobat Chris Pfeiffer will be demonstrating his skills with spectacular stunts. He never ceases to fascinate visitors with his fast trick combinations – a talent which won him the Indoor Streetbike Freestyle World Championship for the third time in succession.
The world's best enduro riders such as Andreas Lettenbichler and Juha Salminen will be roaring around the so-called “x-track”, providing spectacular off-road motorcycling entertainment.
In addition to test rides on current BMW Motorrad models through the beautiful surroundings of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, there will also be a large-scale motorcycle parade on Saturday for all those interested and a classic parade on Sunday, starting and finishing at the Hausberg site.
This year there will once again be women's tours designed especially for female riders, organised by a lady tour guide and on BMW motorcycles - including lowering sets if requested.
Once again, BMW motorcycles will be available at the popular 10,000 square metre enduro park and five experienced instructors will be providing free training sessions here throughout the entire weekend.
By popular request, guests will be given a great time in the party tents by the band “Blechblos’n” on Friday and the formation “Gary and Gerry and their used underwear” on Saturday. Let’s rock – through to the wee small hours: this is the motto once again this year on the “first floor “of the US Lodge. On Friday evening the barn will be rocking with the Austrian party band “Dreirad”, followed by alternative rock from Portugal the next day with “Switha's Band”. Hot sounds from the turntable are promised by DJ Moorat, and Gitty Fisher will inspire country and rock & roll fans on both evenings with her unplugged performances. Solo guitarist Byron will provide classy chill-out sounds at the Fire Ground.
There will be exciting and informative entertainment from motorcycle adventurer Michael Martin, who has been on countless expeditions through all the world’s deserts. As part of his “Travel Surgery” at the US Lodge he will not just be giving insights into his latest project "Planet Desert" but also valuable tips for all those planning a motorcycle trip to remote countries.
The raffle will give fans with the luck of the draw the chance to win a BMW
F 800 R on Friday evening and a BMW F 800 GS on Saturday evening.
Immediately adjacent to the grounds is the campsite with a total surface area of 15,000 square metres, complete with bathroom facilities.
