"My bike saved my life. Several years ago I was
in a bad place and desperately needed a new
lease on life. I took a trip on my BMW GS 1200
to Mozambique all by myself. I crashed on a dirt
road in the middle of the night trying to find
Barra Lodge near Inhambane. I got harassed by
police, lost my top box, with all my clothes in, off
the back of the bike due to of vicious potholes,
rode a horse at sunset in the waves, and amidst
all this excitement and drama, I found myself again.
My bike is my therapist – she introduced me back to Mom Nature
who is my biggest source of inspiration
The solitude in my helmet and the wind on my body gives me the
same awesome satisfaction I feel when I am on stage entertaining a
great audience. The late Mr Rob Barnes, former Marketing Manager
of BMW Motorrad, noticed this emerging passion in me and I am
now enjoying my 3rd year as a Brand Ambassador for Motorrad.
Thank you Mr Barnes, we miss you terribly.
So, I ride to most of the gigs, put
bikes and banners on as many of
our stages as possible and harass
my manager (Ingrid Botha) into
giving me time off so I can ride!
What a band, what a brand, what an adventure - a BMW GS 1200

Off The Edge is the original melodic rock project of Peter
Hanmer who is the guitarist for Clint & Co. Clint is involved in
the group as the front man and has written and co-written
several of Off The Edge tracks. Check out the official OTE
website as well as Peter’s website for more information.
Clint's not so secret passion for adventure biking has lead him
to a sponsorship with Pauli Massyn, the owner of gps4africa.
Clint gets to use a state of the art Garmin GPS system along
with the incredible Mapsource software. It is now impossible
for Clint to not find the gig!
Pauli has a brilliant range of after market extras designed to pimp any GS to the max - check out his
African Ring
Clint's love for boxing and his friendship with top boxing aficionado, Uncle
Jeff Ellis, has lead the band to perform at several big boxing events at
Emperor's Palace. Clint & Co. have played numerous top boxers to and
from the ring - not something many bands have had the opportunity to do!
What a band!
