Hi, rally rookie Kirsten here! I like to ride but have allowed work to get in the way for a while now. Looking forward to fixing that and hopefully claiming a few BMR bonuses along the way. I’ll be riding a BMW R1200RT and working to dial it and me in a bit as the year gets going. Being a rookie, advise is welcomed and appreciated. Cheers!

I’m Tim Watts, 57, married (38+ years) and have two adult children and two grandchildren (4 yo and 16 mos.). I was born in a log cabin that I helped my grandfather build and I work as an industrial machinery mechanic in the Seattle area (~40 years). I’ve been riding motorcycles since 1982 and long distance and endurance riding since 2002. One of my favorite things about the BMR is it allows me to get that rush that I’ve loved about riding endurance rallies but for a ton less money and leaves me in control of the scheduling – mostly.

Baby Groot and I from So. Cal. We’re looking forward to our 2020 BMR adventures on a Indian Motorcycle .

Howdy and Happy New Year from Texas. Paul Slaton here, back for more groovy moto fun in 2020. Not getting in as much riding these days as I would prefer which is one of the reasons I love this rally so much. It gets us out on the road when we wouldn’t otherwise. Love the event, love the boni, but most of all, I absolutely love the people. Be safe, ride far, and thanks so much to the rock stars who make this possible.

I’ve been a motorcyclist for 65 years, loved it the first time I threw a leg over a seat and am still in that same groove. I’ve worked in the industry, earned a living for 6 years as a factory rider and always look forward to the start of a new two-wheeled adventure! Currently the president of Streetmasters Motorcycle Workshops. This is my 7th year participating in the BMR and am looking forward to having more time to ride farther afield this year. Best of luck to all and look forward to seeing on the road.

I ride, And sometimes deer run into me. Sometimes I type a long bio and it disappears

Hi, My name is Greg Farmer. This will be my 7th BMR. I’m hoping for a mild winter so I can get out to all these really cool bonuses this year.
