Camping equipment and bike for sale

Hello, I will come to this meeting and it is close to the end of my trip. I know, quality outdoor equipment might not so easy to get down here, and I could sell my Northface Stormbreak 2 tent, a Thermarest Neoair matress (very comfortable, warm, small and light) and a Marmot Cloudbreak sleeping bag (very light, was warm enough in Patagonia with thermal bike underwear -- needs some wash). All has been used about 50 nights.

I also consider selling my 250 cc Chinese bike or parts of it, including big US toolbox, aluminum hand protectors, Giving saddle bags, a 90/90/21 from ~75% from tire (Corean Made from Chile), preferably first days of April but negociable.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
