The BMW Concept Path 22 with a Surfboard Holder

During the Wheels & Waves Festival last June BMW Motorrad unveiled the BMW interpretation of a scrambler: the BMW Concept Path 22nd.

The annual festival on the beach of Biarritz, France stands for the attitude towards life, freedom and individuality and connects motorcycle enthusiasts from around the world. This unique atmosphere offered the perfect setting for the presentation of a special scrambler: The Concept Path 22 is based on a BMW R NINET and is the result of collaboration between the organizers of Wheels & Waves, the motorcycle club Southsiders MC, the artist Ornamental Conifer and the surfboard factory Dyer Brand.

“Performance specifications are not so much of interest – style and originality all the more so.” The Scrambler expresses passion and is as varied as their owners.

The Highlight: A Surfboard Holder

“A particular highlight of the BMW Concept Path 22 is the surfboard holder on the right-hand side. Specially developed by BMW Motorrad, it is as reduced, functional and high-quality as the bike itself. Made solely of machined aluminium and leather, it is highly variable and can be adapted to different board sizes. When not required it can be folded down to disappear into the bike’s silhouette or else simply dismounted.”

The Name: Path 22

“The name “Path 22″ refers to one of the insider secrets among Europe’s surf spots. This particular stretch of beach is inaccessible to cars, located on the Atlantic coast of southern France, half an hour’s walk through one of Europe’s biggest pine forests. The path leading to this spot bears the number 22.”
