If you're still looking for presentations, Nadsicles and I will be happy to tell you about our ride this summer to China on rubbish bikes, (Chinese scooters) and/or our trip from London to The Gambia on Honda C90s. We should both be in Oz then, providing we haven't been arrested or something somewhere else.

Last year long wet ride to Queensland but fun all the same.
Hope to see if could do both but Vic is just a weekend trip.

Interested, even though far in time

Not sure how to stay on the thread list, since the meeting is in October.

Thanx for that great invite, it was very well done. I particularly liked the great photos. I haven't been to a HU meeting since 2008 as they are too far from Adelaide but I fully intend to be at this one. I've camped in the Grampians both here and in Scotland and only death will stop me attending.
I look forward to meeting our gracious hosts and all the interesting dreamers I met at the last one.

U ra best,

Tony Ward.

New to Horizons Unlimited?

New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
