We Are The GS Trophy Hunters
Our origins go way back in San Jose, CA, where a group of BMW GS riders came together with a common passion. They formed a tight-knit team and embarked on a thrilling journey.
We train relentlessly, pushing ourselves and our bikes to the limits. Our goal? To secure a spot on the prestigious 2025 USA BMW Motorrad GS Trophy team.
We have a strong bond of camaraderie, constantly supporting and inspiring each other. Along the way, we've earned numerous awards and recognitions, proving our skills and dedication.

"Coyote" Gwen Briens
R1300GS
I'm Gwen a.k.a "Coyote Gwen", and for the past two decades, I've called America home (originally from France). My wife Tracey and 3 children (Ethan, Remy and Neave) are true supporters of my newfound passion.
While the States have offered me a lot, it wasn't until 2019 that I truly discovered a passion that ignited a whole new sense of adventure – the world of ADV motorcycling.
For those unfamiliar, ADV stands for "Adventure." And let me tell you, it's aptly named! From the moment I first threw a leg over an adventure bike and hit the open road, I was hooked. The freedom, the sense of exploration, the breathtaking landscapes – it was unlike anything I'd ever experienced.
But what truly surprised me was the incredible community that comes with this adventurous lifestyle. It's a diverse group of people from all walks of life, united by a shared love for exploration and the open road. They've welcomed me with open arms, and I've learned so much from their experiences and stories. This is how and why Adventure Hunters came to life.
So, whether you're a seasoned rider or simply curious about this world, I'm excited to share my journey with you. Buckle up, and let's explore the incredible world of ADV motorcycling together!

————————————————————
I ride a GS because it is the most fun, exciting, and well balanced motorcycle I’ve ever ridden. From the moment I took my first ride, I fell in love with all things GS. More than just a machine, it has been the key that has unlocked the door to the most incredible experiences I’ve ever had on a motorcycle and introduced me to some of the most wonderful people and friendships I’ve had in my lifetime.
The GS Trophy Hunters is more than a team, we are a family of like minded souls that may never have found each other if not for our shared passion for the spirit of GS and the human connections it fuels. While the GS Trophy competition is all in our sights, it is the journey not the decision, and I am here to experience every moment and thrill along the way with my friends, the GS Trophy Hunters.
