Smile HUMM USA Appalachians Aug 11-13 2017 in Maryland.

We are very happy to announce the 1st USA HUMM will be held in Green Ridge State Forest in Maryland from August 11-13, 2017.

What's a HUMM? It's 2 DAYS of 100% pure off-road adventure navigation challenges for teams of 2-4 riders. Whether you're new to off-road riding or a trail ninja, HUMMs let you and your team choose your adventure...

What's unique about a HUMM? All teams get the same maps (Reference Map and Topographic map(s) of the riding area), and a HUMM Points Book on Day 1. Each checkpoint gets its own page with key info about its location - your team figures out how to get there. Every team has a different strategy, so there is no set course. You're never following a string of riders down the same dusty road!

See the HUMM trailer for a taster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1rN8l_mgJc


Zacker Adventures are our HUMM Appalachians Event Partner. Mark your calendars and form your team. Don't have a team? No worries, we can team you up! Online registration is open now, early bird rates until Jul 31!

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.
