Thanks John, looking forward to it. Just arrived in Germany a couple hours ago, not even sure what day it is now, but the sun's up so it must be daytime . Another adventure begins!

Hi Pongo and all.

Do you still have places available for the mini-meet, as work permitting I hope to be able to make it, but won't really know until the week before if I can.

If so, it would be good to meet up with everyone.

Cheers

Potski

Hi Potski,

Yes, still got some room, about 33 known to be coming so far. Doesn't cost anything to register, so might be a good idea, and if you can't make it then it doesn't matter.

Good to hear from you.

Hi Pongo,


Ok, thanks for that. We have registered and are looking forward to coming along. If it goes pear shaped I'll let you know so you know where you are with places.


Thanks again.


Cheers
Potski

O.K. everyone, please note that registration for this meeting is now closed. Looking forward to seeing everyone, looks like we've got a pretty full house for this meet. Even the weather forecast is reasonable!

Salut Roger,
If everyone turns up we will be about 40 altogether. It's rather a lot to bring cheese for that many people! so will leave it up to you to decide what to do. Sorry to hear the video won't be ready, but never mind.........something to look forward to next year!

If you're coming from the south to St Amans
Be aware - there is a road closure at Estaing (the D97). This means you'll have to make a short diversion to Entragues then on to St Amans from there.

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.

Susan and Grant Johnson Read more about Grant & Susan's story

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.



All times are GMT +1. The time now is 05:20.
