Looking for workshop in Broome
Hi all,
I am looking for a place to do some repairs on my Landcruiser, preferably a sheltered place or workshop. Bought the car a few weeks ago for long travelling in Oz. Want to replace the front axle drive shaft seals before going to do some rough offroading in the Kimberly.
Thanks,
Noel

Reasonable Mechanic
If you struggle to find a workshop this mechanic is a good bloke and a good deal cheaper than the rest of the mechanics in town. Had him work on my Forerunner a few times last yr.

travel
Hi Taco,
Not on this trip but probably in the future. This trip will end in Darwin for me but we will keep the car (bought it with a friend) and use it for regular 4-5 week holidays in the near future. This trip is 3 months from Perth to Darwin! Nice and slow!
You? Any travel plans with the 650, still on the gold coast?
Say hi to Maria.
Groetjes,
Noel

Keep it cold
Hi Taco,
Can't this time but the time will come since we will move the car around Oz for the next few years. Cold coast will sure be on the list too. Keep it cold till then!
Greets,
Noel

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.
