Here's a great start to the rally season. There are a lot of on-road and off-road runs planned to make full use of the Gelände/Straße our bikes are built for.

The price is very reasonable and the friends you'll see and make are first rate.
April 17-19.

The Iron Horse BMW rally will have something for everyone. There will be great touring rides, either guided or solo, to visit Old Town Bisbee, Tombstone, or historic Douglas. There are lots of opportunities for adventure riders in the surrounding Chiricahua Mountains. RawHyde Adventures will be here…

Have you dreamt about owning a GS? If we told you you could get into a brand new, ultra capable GS for under $9,000 would you think we were mad?

Maybe we're mad... Right now through Jan 31st, a RTW ('Round the World) Capable G 650 GS Sertaõ can be yours for under $9,000 with the current BMW Factory Incentives (plus Tax, License and Doc fees).

Financing is Available! Don't wait for someone else to ride off with your dream.

Our friend, Mark Carrera posted this, but we wanted it to be seen more easily by the group...

I just arrived on my F800GS from Maine. I'll be here in Tucson for about a month. Can any give me a road condition for the backside of Mt Lemmon? I would like to ride it in a week or so. As I remember, its not a super tough ride, but its been many years since I lived here and more years since I went up. Also, is anyone interested in riding up with me,and if so, when would be best?

Perfect bike for the range.

Ron Green is loving his new R 1200 GS Adventure!
His GSA gets him to the range with amazing range at over 300 miles between fill-ups.

This is happening Saturday Nov 22nd. Hope you can make it.

A lot of GS Riders have been looking for an opportunity to take their GS off the pavement and onto some dirt.
Here is an excellent low-difficulty ride to help gain some skill on your dual-sport. Hope you can make it.

Saturday November 22nd

Phil Curtis and Ricardo Osburn will lead a mostly off tarmac tour for dual purpose riders through the graded dirt roads and some two track trails in the area around and South of Sonoita to the Coronado National Memorial, Lochiel, Duquesne and back to Patagonia. They will lead on BMW 1200 GS’s but any dual sport bike is welcome.

Depart on Saturday Nov 22 from Iron Horse BMW on Grant Rd at 8:30 AM or depart from the Roadrunner corner at Haughton and Sahaurita Roads at 9:15 after the first group arrives.

This will be an all day ride as we do not expect to get back to Patagonia until the middle of the afternoon. We’ll get a late lunch in Patagonia at the Gathering Grounds. Bring adequate trail snacks and water. Top off fuel in at the Roadrunner station.

(From RawHyde): RawHyde Adventures recently enjoyed mention in an article written by Zack Courts of Motorcyclist Magazine. Zack joined in on a 5 day trek into Death Valley, and speaks of the trials and successes he experienced along the way. A great read by an exceptional guy.

Here is an album full of epic photos from the BMW "One World. One R 1200 GS" tour earlier this year. Any photo of something on two wheels is great... But Adventure Bike photos are the best..!

Earlier this year, RawHyde was privileged to lead the BMW “One World. One R 1200 GS” tour during its trek through the US of A. Among the team was Ulla Lohmann, a world renowned National Geographic Photographer. Her photos are truly exquisite, capturing the incredible uniqueness and beauty we have come to enjoy here in California.

See something you want to enjoy in person? Let us know. RawHyde can take you there!
