Hello,

I am an new HU member. A few months ago I bought a 1995 Ténéré and I love riding the bike. I hope to be able to take it on a trip through russia someday.

I was thinking about registering for the GE meeting next week. I live in Belgium Its only a 370 km trip.
Are there more people from Belgium or the south of Holland who will be going there. Maybe we could ride together.

Bring old maps, guide books etc...

Hi guys,

only 4 more days to go - then it´s time to celebrate!

Bring your old maps, guide books or anything that you don´t need anymore, but maybe could be useful for somebody else. Even if you are selling a motorcycle or accesories - just take some pictures and stick them in our Gasthaus with your telephone number - maybe somebody wants it...

See you soon - Jens

Still great weather - blue sky and sunny!

There's always a great bonfire, so I'm sure some wood could come in handy, thanks!

New to Horizons Unlimited?

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.
