2010 Travellers meeting?
What is the chances of having a Horizons Unlimited Meeting up in North Queensland next year in winter or dry season as they call it over there(2010)?
My wife and I plan to be up in that area in June/July/Aug, so if the event can become a reality during that time we would like to assist.
We are currently down in VIC, and plan to spend the summer down south saving some money first.

To anyone coming along (an it seems quite a few are) If you need tyres, Robbie from tyres for bikes will have a full tyre fitting service available over the weekend, so leave that half worn thing on for the ride there and have Robbie fit a new one while your enjoying all thats going on.
Might be an idea to let him know what tyer you want, just to make sure he has one vailable for you, but he does keep a big range in stock.
He can contacted on 0428558827

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.
