Talking Ontario 2012 Meeting location
I am very excited about the Ontario meeting scheduled for late September '12.
I know the details are all being sorted out still and that nothing is official, but is there any ideas yet as to where in Ontario the meeting might be located? I know I am just being ancey but the more trips I have to day dream about, the easier it is to get through a workday..

Contact the folks at DualSport Plus and they may be able to give you an idea of possible dates and location.

We're working on it - we have a potential location but not confirmed yet. North of Toronto if that's useful!

Very useful, thanks Grant. I had a ball at my first meeting (NC '11) and look forward to another one. Happy to have another option for '12 so I can go someplace new. Maybe by 2013 I will have enough cash and free time to make the BC meeting...Or Morrocco if things go really well

New to Horizons Unlimited?

New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!

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.
