The International GS Trophy 2024
The venue of the Int. GS Trophy 2024 has been announced: the off-road adventure will be taking us to Namibia. Now that the Int. GS Trophy has travelled around all continents throughout the globe, it returns to where it all began – Africa. Namibia impresses with beautiful landscapes, what are know as the big five and many other animal species. Hot days end with crimson sunsets. The night sky that follows is overwhelming and starry. The trip to Namibia will be a unique experience with a lot of #SpiritOfGS. We can hardly wait!
Once-in-a-lifetime experience
It goes without saying that the exact routes for the Int. GS Trophy 2024 are still top secret until the event itself kicks off. However, we can already promise you one thing: it will be an unforgettable experience where participants will be able to demonstrate their riding skills and expertise as part of ambitious challenges.
It’s all about skills and team spirit. In addition to plenty of sandy stints, the route will also take us up Namibia's mountains and therefore present us with some rocky stretches. Even for experienced Enduro riders, Namibia will be an once-in-a-lifetime adventure that will remain a lasting memory.

Our Team for India
They have been preparing for this event for a long time – and training hard. And it’s all paid off. Introducing: our men’s team for India! These talented bikers have managed to beat the competition in the national qualifiers thanks to their impressive skills. That means a definite entry to the Int. GS Trophy 2024 for Anand, Devaraj and Shahaan. But, of course, the three bikers still have plenty of time to enjoy the excitement – and continue preparing for the once-in-a-lifetime event in Namibia. Get to know the three men a little bit better here.
Anand Dharesan
One man, many talents: Anand runs a lighting company, as well as a farm outside of his hometown of Thiruvananthapuram. Of course, he also rides a motorbike. Even as a child, his father would often take him on rides. He was barely 18 when he was finally able to get his own motorcycle licence and start his adventure. For the 32-year-old, the GS is the ultimate adventure bike.
Devaraj Venkatesh
31-year-old Devaraj from Bangalore works for a corporation and organises events for the automotive industry, among other tasks. Since the first time he sat on a motorcycle, he knew he wanted to learn how to ride one. Now, there’s no doubt about his riding skills, as evidenced by his participation in the Int. GS Trophy.
Shahan Khan
When 21-year-old Shahan from Bangalore is not busy with his studies in political science, he helps out his family at a resort in the stunning Karnataka Forest. Incredible, but true: Shahan has been riding motorcycles since he was 5 years old. At the age of 14, he got his first BMW GSA, and since then, he hasn’t been able to get enough of it.
