Well after months of tests and assessments, presentations and interview I found out last week I was successful in my application

So I will be an operational paramedic clinical team leader

I move onto a new pay grade etc so I thought I need a treat

My other passion is motorcycling and in particular adventure biking. I went to morocco last year and it was just THE MOST amazing bike trip

So...... I have decided its time for an upgrade

I have put a deposit down today for one of these.....

The new 2014 BMW R1200GS Adventure TE



I'm a very bad man but OMG this thing rocks

Delivery end June early July so can't wait and I'm a sucker for BMW not only cars this will be my 4th GS bike.

Woo hoo

Jon

Well done

[Brian mc21]

Wel done sir. Another biker on here.

[Russbmw]

Great news on the job mate!

Also on the choice of bike!

I part exchanged my Fazer 1000 for a BMW K1200R about a month ago, you'll love the shaft driven BM!

[AlwynMike]

Every time I go out on my bike it's an adventure!

Will I know where I'm going?
Not often

Will I fall off?
Probably

Will I nearly fall off?
Loads of times

Will I stall it in the most difficult situation (river, steep hill etc)?
Of course

Will I run out of fuel in the middle of nowhere?
Not yet, but nearly

Whatever the weather, will I arrive back cold, wet, muddy and tired?
Oh yes

Will I have enjoyed myself?
Abso-bloody-lutely!

Cheers for the comments :-)

I've had shaft drive for last 10 years and could not do chains now.

[Greg330]

Congratulations buddy!!

[bungleaio]

Fair play to you on the bike. In your line of work you must have been to more than your fair share of accidents, I doubt I could get on a bike after that.

Congratulations on the promotion, ride safe.
