Depending on the time and location I'd be interested in popping over from Victoria just so I can have an excuse to get off this rock.

And I'd come up from Bellingham, depending on everything (work, weather, sleep schedule, etc.). I know some long distance riders who don't frequent this site who'd probably be interested, too.
Last time we did this there were people attending who met later on--by plan or by purest accident--in Central and South America. Granville Island was the most convenient place given attendees from the States, Vancouver Island, the city and suburbs.

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.
