Hello, Chef here.

I had a fantastic time last year and very much enjoyed meeting some of the Super Stars of adventure traveling.

I wondered if there is the time or interest in doing another cooking demo??

If there is, does anyone have something they would like to learn how to cook??

regards

Peter

Peter, I'm sure there'll be loads of people to watch your cooking demo - as always, the smell of good food cooking brings everyone out!

Please sign up to present again, we'd love to have you back!

If anyone from Southern California is going to the meeting, and is interested in riding the week prior, Im going to be riding that whole week and wouldnt mind some company.

My very tentative plan is to leave Lancaster Saturday morning, heading up the east side of the Sierra, crossing Sonora or Tioga Pass (havent decided yet), head up thru Gold Country a bit, cross to the coast, and come down PCH to the meeting, arriving on Thursday. Leave Sunday morning, ride thru Carrizo Plain back home. Might do a little fishing on the way, plenty of stopping and taking in the scenery, might throw in some offroad (nothing too strenuous). Not a whole lot of preplanning in that respect, just going to play it by ear and see how it goes.

If anyone is interested feel free to PM me. Like I said, Im riding solo, would be kinda nice to have a little company for once.

Seeing as how this is my yearly vacation Im looking to just relax and enjoy my week of riding. The only 3 fixed parts of my plan are leaving Saturday, Cambria Thursday, and home Sunday .

Justin,
As you are "heading up through Gold Country a bit" on your way to Cambria... I live in Roseville, near GC, riding 01 650gs to the HU meeting. I was planning on leaving on Wed afternoon, overnight in San Jose at friends, then head toward Cambria. Would like to join you if our routes can intersect at a convenient time and place. I'm new to HUBB, how do I PM you?

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.
