The bikes are here now - should be available on tuesday so the crate will be free after say wed this week. I'll save it for you. Staying with family in Cromer near Dee Why beach. I'll have use of a Ute so I could deliver the empty crate to you - so long as you are not miles away. If you get sorted soon, I could drop off the crate on the way back from the port at Botany bay..

Hi!
I'm in Sydney, Newtown. I've just arrived yesterday so today I'm going to visit the workshop Rising Sun Workshop I've got an agreement from them and now going to find a place there for a work. They are close to Billabong gardens hostel where I'm staying in Newtown. If you are able to drop the crate to the workshop it would be a great deal from you! Thanks a lot!

Alex,
Do to a screw up by our shipper - the bikes are available to us on Monday. So the crate will be free on tuesday. I can't deliver that far in the city for free, it's not my truck and tolls apply. I could drop off on the north side of the bridge or tunnel though. Collection is not problem if you can find a Ute. You can't find a drop off in Manly?

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.
