Global Super Sunday VI - World Rally - Sept 16, 2012

[SHIVA]

Thanks to everyone who made our 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th annual Global Super Sunday rides a success. We had groups meeting in several countries in the world all on the same day to celebrate the K bikes.

Of course this year, the GSS will also include the S1000RR and the K1600's.

It's time to start thinking about our Global Super Sunday VI, World Rally. This year the event will be on Sunday, September 16, 2012. We are a bit flexible on the date, so, if the event would work better in your region on that Saturday (9/15), that would be cool with us.

I just wanted to set the date so you guys can start thinking about it, talking about it and planning it during the upcoming riding the season...

Global Super Sunday - SOUTH AFRICA!

Hi all K, RR owners and friends, please join us for the annual BMW Global Super Sunday!

We will meet up at Bavarian Motorcycles at Centurion Gate (co Akkerboom and John Voster Drive) on the morning of the 16th September 2012 at 7:30 to leave just after 8:00.

We will all start off from BMW Centurion and head towards Hartebeespoortdam Engen 1stop (co R104 and R512) where we will meet up with some of the northwest crowd and to re-fuel to be able to make the strech towards sun city. We will arrive at Harties +- 08:45 and wish to leave at 09:00 towards sun city. Those who will be meeting us at Harties, please email/pm/phone me so that we dont leave anyone behind.

Enroute there will be a front runner, and a sweeper to ensure no one gets lost.

At Sun City there will be a decent buffet breakfast for R85 at the Cabana hotel (with parking aranged for us right up front) which includes free entry to Sun City and free entry (to be obtained at the hotel reception) to the valley of the waves. Remember to bring a bathing suit and a towel, its spring after all!

There will not be a formal group ride back (although most leave in groups after breakfast), so that everyone can enjoy the scenery at Sun City and the Valley of the waves.

Please forward this to any friends who have a BMW superbike or is a BMW enthusiast.

Good luck to all those who are planning to participate in our 6th GSS.

We had a serious amount of rain on Saturday night, and Sunday morning the opportunity to go and ride seemed a bit bleak. This would be the first time in 6 years we have bad weather on the GSS! None the less, a few riders braved the bad weather and joined in!

Here are a few pics from this years ride:

Those are awesome pics... very cool indeed.




Your events are so distinctly SA, I really think for next year, you should set your own dates and not worry about rest of the world. I suggest Oct or Nov or Dec. Great job!

Any news or info that came out of the rally that we need to know.

[Tr0jan]

Hehe, thanks. No real news, we only had one person who was nearly arrested in a road block for covering his numberplate, but futher fairly uneventful.

[SHIVA]

what's so cool about our South African contingent is that, even your bad weather rallies still attract a lot of people. I am very impressed.

[Bernardo]

Congratulations to all of the group, and especially to you TrOjan !

[Biza]
