On a RTW tour on a BMW F800GS, arriving in Australia middle of June
Hey guys
I travelled on my BMW F800GS over the last 10months from Europe to currently Indonesia and covered around 30'000km. With my trip I started a charity project for visual impaired children in Bangkok.
I will arrive in Darwin around middle of June and plan to ride from Darwin to the east Cairns/Townsville and down the coast to Sydney/Melbourne finishing at Perth.
Would be great to catch up with motorbike riders along the way to get some advice, have some great chats and drink one or two s.
If you are interested to catch up, leave me a message.

Cheers,
Roland

Roland,
My wife and I started off in Dunedin, New Zealand about 9 weeks ago, just picked up our bikes in Melbourne a few days ago and are traveling North up the East Coast of Australia right now. We'll be crossing paths at some point and we'd enjoy catching up with you.
Email me at kevin@zbakerz.com

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.
