A THIRD Australian HU Meeting in 2013! Perth West Australia 19-20 October
Around eighteen travelers came to the special HU meeting at the Dome Café, Maylands, Perth yesterday.
There was an interesting exchange of knowledge, amusing experiences and travelling tales including:
·Vespa Scooter – Australia to England
·Africa Twin – two up UK to Australia
·KTM 990 – across Australia
·1100 – GS across Australia
·Tales of a Japanese rider on a ‘postie bike’
To name but a few!!
Several present described their positive experience of Horizons Unlimited and the Hubb and how they felt it was time to put something back.
This was following by an interactive Skype conference call with the Horizons Unlimited Founders – Grant and Susan Johnson.
We are very happy to report we agreed to hold the first Perth HU meeting – on the weekend of 19/20th of October 2013.
· Grant and Susan Johnson will be here in WA to guide us on our journey.
Perth has a dedicated group of travelers and we look forward to celebrating the 10th anniversary of HU meetings in Australia here in Perth.
We look forward to welcoming you from across Australia and beyond, watch this space for further details.
Thanks, Ewen MacGregor and Dave Fox-Spencer

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.
