Just seen this thread and am really envious of everyone going to Nakusp. I was there in 2010 and had a wonderful time. Great people, great place.
Enjoy the weekend

Just for the record we had ONE 10 minute shower today, (it was a doozy though!) And the weather forecast is pretty good - chance of showers Thursday/Friday, and the rest good!
Don't know if there is a laundromat in town, I'm sure Zigy will let us know if he found one, and we'll let you know if he didn't!

Sounds like the meeting is going really well. Just wanted to post a message to let people, who remember me giving a talk there in 2010, know that I now have a book published about my trip - with the help of The Ted Simon Foundation.
'Gone Riding' is available on kindle as the easiest way for North Americans to get a copy. And please do - I'm really nice about Canada!
More details on my website...

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.
