5th Horizons Unlimited mini meeting

We would like to invite you to our Motorcycle Travelers meeting.

=As usual you are going to have the chance to meet many other travelers and to exchange ideas and information about the trips. You will be able to participate on traveler’s presentations and different seminars, like photography workshop and others.

=Feel free to give us ideas on seminars you would like to see or you to present.

=Admission is free, but we would like you to preregister on our email Motocampbg@yahoo.com, so we have an idea how many people to expect.

=We apologize but, due to new Government & Tourist Taxes we have had to increase our prices – 24 BGN for bed and breakfast and 14 for camping and breakfast. We will have special prices only for the meeting – bed and breakfast 20 BGN and camping and breakfast - 10 BGN. (1EUR = 1.95 BGN)

=If you wish to reserve a bed, please contact us as soon as possible as you know they fill up fast. Other houses may be available in the village also. Contact us on our email: Motocampbg@yahoo.com

=For any other questions and requirements please don’t hesitate to contact us!

See you in June!

Location?

Hi Polly, Doug, and Ivo,

Looked on the motosapien link you noted, but could not see the location for the mini-meeting anywhere? Unless I overlooked it?

Cheers,

Zarks

well, that depends from where in Greece you are coming, but I'd avoid Sofia!
The Rila mountans near Bansko are really nice, if you are coming from the western part.
From the eastern part of GR, theres no main roads to us, so they are all pretty good routes.

Hope you can make it

Doug

Will come from Athens and definitely want to avoid Sofia.

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.
