The 15th BMW Motorrad Days from July 3 to 5 in
Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
Munich/Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Bikers don't prefer the straight line.
They higher value winding routes and that's an additional reason to
already enjoy the ride to Garmisch-Partenkirchen right from the start. For
15 years now tens of thousands of bikers participate the biggest BMW
Motorrad meeting in the world, the BMW Motorrad Days in Garmisch-
Partenkirchen. From 3rd to 5th of July 2015 everyone on two wheels with
an idea of what it feels like (or who wants to find this out) when the big
motorcycle family comes together will be showing up there once again.
Everyone is invited. The programme is as varied as the model range and
as diverse as the community of enthusiastic bikers.
Considering this wide range of topics, there certainly will be something for
every visitor.
Shows: the show goes on
- The Classic Boxer Sprint is back! 16 two-valve flat twins and 8
four-valve boxers, face off in acceleration duels over the traditional
furlong (approx. 200 meters).
- Donald Ganslmeier's oldest travelling motodrome show in the
world will set your head spinning every half hour on each event
day. Must-sees.
- Chris Pfeiffer and his thrilling stunt show will be there again!
The man from the Allg+â-ñu will come up with new acrobatic
motorcycle moves which will make visitors' eyes pop.
- In his MINI Stunt Show Russ Swift shows how experts can park a
MINI into a parking space sideways or how to drive on two wheels.
- In general make sure to keep your eyes open for well-known
personalties who will be there or are planning to come to
Garmisch. E.g. the Isle of Man veteran Maria Costello. The
speed record rider Valerie Thompson. The entertainment allstar
Wigald Boning. The actress Lisa Tomaschewsky. She is
currently training for her open driving license so she can ride a
BMW S 1000 RR in public (ambitious).
- BMW Motorrad is presenting the latest concept bikes "Concept
Bagger" (a bagger based on the K 1600), "Concept Path 22"
(a BMW R nineT design offshoot), new bikes such as the
BMW R 1200 RS, the S 1000 XR as well as more new products
for the 2016 model year.
And there also will be a motorcycle competition once again at the
Hausberg!
One R 1200 RS and one S 1000 XR are awaiting new owners.

BMW Motorrad Days 2014 virtual style: Be part of it all on

for "BMW Motorrad" on the respective channels.

impressions: Simply use the hashtag #bmwmotorraddays or
post on facebook.com/BMWMotorrad for everyone who had to

The whole BMW Motorrad Days event team has pulled out all the stops to
attract even more motorcycle riders, at least virtually, from all over the
world to come to Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Live chat with Chris Pfeiffer,
see the Motodrome video, laugh over selfies at the camp fire.
However, the best thing of course is to be there in person, touch the
paintwork of the most off-the-wall Boxer Bobber with your fingers, see old
friends and make new ones. See you at the Hausberg.
