Hi Guys and specially Jens, i need to ask something...

Last weekend my wheel bearing of the Sidecar broke.
I am trying to get a Solo until Thursday, but i need TÜV and registration first.
TÜV date is Wednesday, but i dont know when exactly and registration is maybe not possible until friday.

So i cannot say if i have a bike ready to come to the meeting

if its possible i want to come, maybe friday, but what if i cannot?
I have registered and payed online, is there a posibilitie to get the money back if all options fail???
Have no car available this weekend.


Wasn't a good trip this weekend, first the wheel bearing broke, then we take the car alternatively to camp in the netherlands and in the first night the storm disruptet our tent, so that we need to buy a new one

hope i can come to the meeting...

Great Meeting - thank you!

Hi guys,

After cleaning up yesterday, we drove home and 10 km of the campground we got a flat tyre on the car... can you believe this?

Thank you for coming - We were around 200 people including day guests!

See you in October 22.-25.10.2015

Enjoy the summer - Jens

We had actually planned a week's trip from Belgium down through France, but at the last minute decided to come to the meeting. So we ended up riding to Sippersfeld with a little detour via Lyon. It turned out to be an excellent choice.

It was a great meeting and excellent venue. Thanks Jens and everyone else that played a role in putting it together!

Driving home

@ Jens!

I drove home from Sipperfeld to Luxembourg and arrived the gas station with the last drop of gas (490km-16,6l gas). Than I drove home 190km...

Next morning I had a puncher on my back tire...

I fixed it and it shold be OK...2nd try!

Btw. The front tyre is now changed and the motorcycle is runnig much better.

Does anyone know who did the presentation on Scotland? We thought about following roughly in the presenter's footsteps this summer but cannot remember some of the places he went and wanted to ask him about.

By the way, lots of people on the site appreciated this presentation because it covered a destination that is in close distance and still offers the things we wish to find on and off-road.

Many thanks to Jens for organizing this event!

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.
