Ready for the GS Trophy Adventure Bike Challenge?
See what competing in the GS Trophy challenge is all about.

The GS Trophy from BMW Motorrad is here again for the fourth time in 2014. The event takes place every two years in different locations around the world. There’s nothing else quite like the GS Trophy. It’s a unique motorcycling adventure that incorporates skills challenges, camaraderie, foreign cultures and spectacular riding. It’s not a race, but requires a great deal of physical and psychological endurance from its participants.
Special tests allow riders to prove their riding skills, but what counts more is the rider’s sense of spirit and teamwork. This is not an off-road event reserved for professional racers. While some level of off-road experience is required, the event is designed for amateur motorcyclists of all abilities. It’s an event that gives the average Adventure Rider a chance to participate in an exciting international competition like no other.
