So, here is the rest:
If you are interested, I could mail some Garmin tracks to you. They cover the roads to Theti, Komani, Fierze, Kukes, Peshkopi and a dew more. A very scenic ride is north of the road to Theti. It turns off at Hani-i-Hotit and goes into the Vermosh valley. Brilliant!

Accommodation is fairly cheap in Albania (rooms), but camping in the bush is possible and - except for the herd dogs - not dangerous.

Hans
Can you mail me these tracks too please? I'm going to the Balkan again in July.
Thanks.

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.
