Talking Germany Summer 2010, Third Annual HU Travellers Meeting Open now

Germany, July 1-4.

Full details and Registration open now!

Pretty little hills, dark forests, romantic villages and perfect motorcycle roads! If you have never been there – you will love it! A ride in the morning – an afternoon coffee somewhere in an ancient castle and then back to our campground... what else do we need?

Lots of conversation and good German of course! And travel talks and technical clinics to top it all off.

See you there!

Unfortunatley I cannot make it to the summer meeting this year as I will be off to Mongolia

But I heard rumours that there will be another autumn meeting end of october, right? Maybe that´s a good place to celebrate the homecoming .

See you

Welcome end of october!!! Bring pictures...

Hi Björn,

Mongolia sounds great - I am getting jealous...

It is right, there will be a fall meeting end of october, the dates are on the website 29.10.-01.11.2010

Even the Italy Meeting in July is organized by us... the Germans are everywhere...

Have a look, there are some pictures of the location - great farmhouse!

Too bad, we'll either still be in the UK or on our way back home that weekend, so we won't make it. We will however come to the October meeting. I can highly recommend it - the 2009 October meeting was awesome, great and almost familiar atmosphere.

Might do a talk again this year, we'll see.

Perfect, Jens! I think I will attend the fall meeting then. It´s a good thing to come home after 6 month and come to the meeting to get new ideas for the next trips

Even the Italy Meeting is organised by you? What about a Mongolia meeting then?

Björn

Slide shows and workshops wanted

Hey guys out there,

we are still looking for some more slide shows and workshops around the motorcycle... Can you tell a story? Do you have some nice pictures? Or did you do a nice motorcycle trip???

The only thing that you need is your pictures on a USB Stick, everything else we have on the spot.


Please send me a message to set up the schedule for our Summer Meeting.

Thanks a lot and Hello from Arica, Chile!

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.
