Thermarest neoair trekker mat.
Hi all.
Just been using a new thermarest neoair trekker mat last week.
It uses heavier gauge material than the original neoair so it's a bit more sturdy and doesn't sound like a crisp packet when you move around on it.
Feels very warm too.
The construction appears to keep the air chambers that are in contact with you separate from the ones that come in contact with the ground.
Had some great nights sleep on it and it rolls up quite small.
Just FYI.
Dave.

Mat
Hi, just the trekker version here.
I understand that the shell is the same on the new all season but with "reflective technology", ooohh!
Used it a dozen or so times so far and very pleased.
It's not that wide but is very quiet compared to the crisp packet noise the yellow neoair makes.
Used an exped airmat before but it let me down badly as the whole fabric seemed to go porous.
Dave.

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.
