Our vision

Who Are We?

The BMW GS Club International eV has been a registered association with over 2015 members since 180 - all noticeably enthusiastic BMW GS drivers. We initiate and organize all kinds of motorcycle tours at home and abroad under the motto "driving pleasure": from day and weekend tours to enduro trails and unforgettable long-distance trips - both on and off road.

In our varied event calendar you will also find offers for a wide variety of driver training courses, regular get-togethers in the respective regions, informative events and lectures, visits to motorcycle sport companies and accessories providers and, last but not least, our popular festivals and celebrations all around the motorcycle year.

Non-members are also cordially invited and welcome. And of course we look forward to new members who share their passion with us.

What distinguishes us?

We attach particular importance to the community of motorcyclists, friendly cooperation and active participation in club activities - always with family and friends involved. Our members treat each other warmly, respectfully and fairly. With our enthusiasm for motorcycle racing and our club engagement, we consciously campaign for the BMW brand and especially for the BMW GS motorcycles.

It is important to us to meet new people on our tours and encounters, to exchange experiences, to discover unknown regions, foreign countries and cultures. We are also responsible for the positive appearance of motorcycling and the community of motorcyclists in public.

What is important to us?

Transparency. The interests, matters and decisions of our association are always and for all members transparent and visible (information letters, website, annual general meeting, etc.). Members and the board of directors rely on trusting cooperation, to which the active participation of each individual in the club life and in the goals of the club makes a significant contribution.

With this in mind: Make life a ride!

The board

Deputy Chairman

Michael Bishop

As an East Westphalian who has lived in Munich for over a quarter of a century, Micha enjoys traveling in the Alpine region - on the GS, of course.

Thanks to a generous employer and tolerant colleagues, his holiday plans are relatively easy to implement. They also allow time for longer tours, so that he can now look back on more than 200.000 GS kilometers.
In the first two-wheeler season, still touring solo, he has enjoyed the pleasant company, the creative and numerous tour offers, the events and the warm togetherness of the GS'ers since the club's early beginnings.

treasurer

Angelica Drebinger
originally comes from beautiful Franconia directly from Nuremberg. She has lived in Munich since 1993 and in Gauting since 1997.

Angelika came to motorcycling late. Although she has enjoyed riding two-wheelers since she was 15, she only got her motorcycle license when she was 46. Starting with a 650 GS, she now enjoys on-road tours with her 1200 Rally. Luckily, Frank became aware of the GS Club 7 years ago. After a few visits to regulars' tables and a trip together, the membership application in 2017 was just a formality.

 

 

Secretary

Uli Novak

was born in the Bergisches Land and has lived in Munich since 1989 after two stops in Hesse. His enthusiasm for motorized locomotion on two wheels began in 1976 with a 50 Kreidler Florett and ultimately led to the Bavarian manufacturer via several motorcycles made in Japan. Although his first BMW wasn't a boxer, it wasn't long before the first GS was in the garage. The first contact with the GS Club was made in 2018. After a few visits to the regulars' table, membership was quickly decided. Today, Uli enjoys his rides on an R 1250 GS Adventure, during which he mostly rides on the road.

We look forward to meeting new people on our tours, exchanging experiences, exploring unknown regions and discovering foreign countries and cultures. We would like to contribute to the positive perception of motorcyclists in public and look forward to new members with whom we can share our passion.
