Paul,
Absolutely great photos. Thanks for all your efforts here. I didn't even notice you taking these photos. I'll begin a write-up for Australian Road Rider and give you a call about which photos to use.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the good time, even though a little bit wet, nice to catch up with people from Cooroy meet.
Made it home, battery became dislodged as the housing plate decided it had had enough of the bumps, so bodgied back on with zip tyes. then gen light kept on at low speed.
So As of Sunday am flying to Sydney to pick up a new bike and ride it back  , (if any one had seen my bike, new means any thing after 1989 )
Bought a 2004 K1200 LT, Adventure bike its not, but my wifes bum will be happy. Said if I take it to the next meeting she may come.
So every one ride safe and see you on the road.
Steve

Hi Steve,
The K1200 sounds like the go, they are very smooth. It would be great to see you and the missus next year, working on a date this weekend and will let everyone know.

Thanks for a great weekend
I would like to thank everyone who made the weekend possible; the organisers who planned and arranged the event; the magnificant speakers for carrying out presentations and prepare for same; the participants from near and far who simply enjoyed talking about travel and bikes. I thoroughly enjoyed it - 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.
