The flooding is over, no major problems in the region. But it was raining last week again, strange and unpleasant start of the summer that's for sure,

"No problems" depends on how you look at it, I read yesterday that there is talk about moving 250.000 serbs to northern europe for the winter as they cannot get all the animal corpses cleared away, and there is still not guarnay for drinking water in the hardest hit areas of serbia.

But it's good that it's going forward.

I have friends in Pirot, and they complain about almost rain every day, and it have been like that since the first floodings.

I was in Bosnia / Montenegro / Serbia 3 weeks ago, and it was a partly wet experience....

I know the feeling all to well, I had rain from Trebinje, via Kotor to Ski Centar Vucje (cheap rooms).... I did enjoy the view, but at some point seeing the sun would have been nice...



This is more or less where I decided to cut my vacation short, and come back next year.

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.
