RUST magazine: Touratech BMW R1200GS Rambler Special

RUST TOURATECH RAMBLER SPECIAL You’ll have seen our feature test on the Rambler back in RUST 21. Or maybe not – that was one big issue and the test was found toward the back of the running order, so you may well have missed it. So, with much going on behind the scenes right now (a new website being built, revamp of the magazine being worked on) we thought we should use this break in our usual publishing programme to re-issue that test in fuller-glory, with more pages, more images and just a little more of everything. After all, the Rambler is one hell of a bike – it deserves a revisit. We hope you like this special and, be assured, there’s so much more to come! Enjoy the reading – and your riding!

ISLAND PARADISE<br />

THE AZORES CONFOUND. They’re<br />

eminently peaceful islands, with so many<br />

green fields, hydrangea lining the lanes,<br />

dairy cows everywhere contentedly chewing<br />

the lush grass. They’re sparsely populated,<br />

too, needing retired holidaymakers and<br />

surf-dudes (each searching for a different<br />

kind of ‘break’) to make up such traffic as<br />

we found. The mountains are not so high,<br />

reaching just 1000-metres above sea-level<br />

and so all the time you are deafened by the<br />

quiet of the ocean. Okay, up close – and our<br />

friend Jon Beck got very close, skillfully<br />

surfing the break at Praia de Aqua d’Alto –<br />

the sea might roar, but most of the time,

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
