Fabulous, hot and sunny but then again you are a long way up a mountain.... weather can become brutal rapidly.
Last year it thunderstormed on one night with a spectacular lightening show.
I was very glad to have my thermals and warm sleeping bag.

I will post some pictures how road looks like at the end of May - when snow melt.
Right now, I can go up in the mountains only with snowmobile

And of course if you want, we can organise some secure parking down in the town, and we will come for you with our L200.

Where are people coming from for the meet and what plans have you got before and after..?

I'm heading down from Norwich, UK. Leaving on the 18th June and not planning to be home until the 10th July.
It will be a quick 3 day ride before I meet up with a good friend Jukka in Croatia before heading over to Montenegro. I've made no plans from then on....

On this link you can find vide clip from two days ago from Eko katun Vranjak to Kolasin (just gravel part).
Video is not so good, but it will give you basic info about road condition.

Track looks like fun for our trike and trailer! We tackled worse in Morocco, just hope it stays fairly dry

We're on our way down, on Hvar in Croatia at the mo, next stop Dubrovnik, then Montenegro.

Hopefully see you there on Thursday!

Hope you get the bike sorted!

Looking at the weather forecast we're thinking about getting there a day or two early - seem to have ended up with a bit of extra time in hand, which is unusual for us! As it's a proper campsite I'm guessing it's open - is that correct, Blazo? We'll see how we go tomorrow - we don't travel nearly as fast on the trike as we do on bikes!

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.
