    100 YEARS OF “MAKE LIFE A RIDE”: YOUR STORY MAKES OURS 

    BMW Motorrad history is mainly about people sharing a passion: adventurers, dreamers, inventors, athletes, visionaries – those aiming to revolutionize the streets with great ideas on two wheels. 100 years of the “Make Life a Ride” spirit. In this spirit, we take the time to simultaneously look at our past and our future: at events and highlights in the anniversary year 2023. And lots of ideas are still to come. Join us to celebrate this monumental year.
