Once a year the international BMW Motorrad fan community comes together to celebrate for three days, to talk shop and to enjoy Bavarian motorcycling culture and customs. Once again the BMW Motorrad Days – the world’s biggest BMW Motorrad meeting – will be held at the base of the Hausberg in Garmisch-Partenkirchen from July 1st to 3rd  2016 and will be offering a packed programme.

Partytime, power and personalities at the Hausberg
This is where the BMW Motorrad scene, motorcycle enthusiasts and everyone interested in motorcycles meets. The BMW Motorrad Days have long established themselves as an event for all types of motorcycle fans. There will be lots of fun and something for every sports, touring and enduro rider, for customizing freaks and even visitors without a motorcycle license.

During the day there is a packed motorcycle programme as well as the delightful beergarden for relaxing. In the evening live music and numerous parties will entertain visitors. Among the big names at the BMW Motorrad Days will be German actorHannes Jaenicke, ice wheelie world record holder Robert Gull, Superbike riderSabine Holbrook, the International GS Trophy winning team as well as theInternational GS Trophy female team, comic artist Riccardo Burchielli and many more.

Boxer sprint, stunt show and wall-ride action 
The Boxer Sprint provides a great deal of live action where especially ambitious BMW boxer motorcyclists drag-race over the traditional furlong distance (eighth of a mile).  BMW 2 and 4-valve boxers are eligible to enter and a jury selects a team of 16 racers from all applicants. The more outstanding the tuned or customised bike is, the higher the chances are of getting onto the starting grid.

Visitors can inspect all the unique custom bikes in detail in the Custom Village – accompanied by live Rockabilly music in the evening.

If you want to experience how a motorcycle can seemingly defy the laws of gravity, then make sure you visit the amazing stunt show with freestyle artist Mattie Griffin or go toDonald Ganslmeier’s Motodrome. Donald and his team perform breathtaking wall rides on historic motorcycles in the world’s oldest motodrome – barely more than an arm’s length from the spectators.

Riding out into the mountains together
Visitors can test ride a wide selection of current BMW motorcycle models. Registering is recommended and is possible from the beginning of June under: www.bmw-motorrad.com/motorraddays

You can explore the Zugspitz region around Garmisch, one of the most scenic regions in Germany, in full or half day tours as well as on panorama tours with local guides.

Enduro riding fun and GS try-out trophy – a real challenge for newcomers
If you are looking to experience offroad riding on your own BMW GS, you will be thrilled by the GS try-out trophy 2016. Teams of 3 participants always set off together and taking part is free of charge. However, the number of starting places is limited. The winner of the GS try-out trophy will win a valuable prize: a BMW motorcycle. Detailed information will follow shortly on the BMW Motorrad homepage www.bmw-motorrad.com

Another exciting attraction also awaits slightly less ambitious enduro enthusiasts: the offroad track at the base of the Hausberg where experienced instructors show participants how much fun offroad riding can be.
