| Bmw Dealer Current title holder Kirssi especially must be feeling confident after winning the Snow Speedhill event and currently sitting second in the Austrian Cross Country championship after a third place in Roppen last weekend. His team manager expects Kirssi to carry on where he left off although Wolfgang expects the other BMW Motorrad riders to give him a good run for his money. |
| Bmw 3 Series Simo could well be the man to beat as hes been racing the HP2 all year he confirmed. Bmw Dealer. However Chris is always very fast and Jimmy has all his Dakar experience to draw upon. |
| Bmw 5 Series Cap to Cape with the HP2 Enduro Since its launch in September 2005 BMW Motorrads HP2 Enduro has caught the imagination of offroad fans all over the globe. The worlds most powerful production enduro bike has already been in action in legendary races such as the Baja 1000 and Erzberg Rodeo but it has also just completed an assignment that even its designers couldnt have envisaged. Bmw 3 Series. Dakar rally veteran and offroad riding expert PG Lundmark has just ridden his HP2 Enduro from the Nordkap in Norway all the way to Cape Horn on the tip of South Africa. |
| Bmw 6 Series The trip took the Swede over seven weeks and not only showed his determination and riding ability but also gave a fantastic example of just what the HP2 Enduro is really capable of in tough hostile terrain. BMWs 105 hp enduro bike may have competed successfully in offroad competitions across the world but few people would have considered it as a first choice to take on the challenge of a 22000 km ride across two continents. Bmw 5 Series. I rode a HPNbased BMW in the Dakar and it was very similar to a HP2 Enduro said Lundmark. |
| Bmw 7 Series This was a trip Id always dreamed of doing and I decided it would be a great challenge to do it on an HP2 and show just what the bike could do. Bmw Dealer. Lundmark left his home in Fjallbonas Sweden on December 21 2005 and the next day his journey really started as he left Nordkap the most northerly point of Europe. |
| Bmw X3 The only modifications PG made to the BMW were a small screen for enhanced weather protection and a bracket on the rear seat to hold a spare fuel canister. Additionally because most of the initial section of the trip would be ridden in snowy conditions studded tyres were used in Europe. Bmw Dealer. We really didnt have any problems with the bikes said PG. |
| Bmw X5 They went from the freezing snow of northern Europe to the baking heat of central Africa and never once let us down. Bmw Dealer. They were as reliable as an atomic clock. |
| Bmw Z4 PG didnt ride the whole trip alone though; he had a twoman support team following him and was also joined in Egypt by his good friends Lukas and Ian Lundin. Bmw Dealer. The two brothers also rode HP2 Enduros and are the owners of Lundin Oil. |
| Bmw M3 The goal of the expedition was to raise one million dollars (US) for the funding of orphanages and fresh water supplies in Africa and so far it has raised $900000. The trip took PG from Norway to Finland then Sweden and on to Germany the Czech Republic Hungary Romania Bulgaria Turkey Syria Jordan and Egypt where he was joined by Ian and Lukas. The trio then rode through Ethiopia Kenya Zambia and Botswana before finishing in South Africa. Bmw Dealer. As you may expect from a journey of this enormity PG has plenty of fascinating tales to tell like the night he slept in a garage in Prague instead of the hotel room he had booked. |
| Bmw Prices, Bmw Reviews He wasnt happy with the security provided for the bikes so decided to keep an eye on everything himself. Bmw Dealer. Its strange but when asked its very hard to remember all the different things that happened. Bmw 5 Series. Its only when Im lying in bed at night that all the memories drift back. Bmw 6 Series. There are so many highlights such as when we passed through Jordan. Bmw Dealer. We rode alongside the Dead Sea for a while and couldnt resist going for a swim or should I say float as the water certainly is salty. |
