We now know when we're speaking:

Friday, July 12

"3:00-5:00 p.m., Club 105
Horizons Unlimited—13 Years Around The World
Why would anyone ride a motorcycle through Africa, South America, Europe and Alaska? Grant and Susan Johnson have ridden their BMW R80 G/S two-up over 40 countries and 5 continents, and they’re not black belts, daredevils or super heroes. This show will inspire you to hit the road yourself and show you what you’ll see when you get there. Included are valuable travel tips and a question period! After you’ve seen this show, see the Johnson’s second seminar to learn how you can do it yourself."

Saturday, July 13

"8:45-10:15 a.m., Club 105
Horizons Unlimited—The “How To” of Long Distance Travel
Everything you always wanted to know but were afraid to ask. Answers from helpful folks at www.HorizonsUnlimited.com. Is it really safe to go to Africa, or Mexico or South America or ?? Where to go? Which bike to take? What do I really need to do to the bike, what’s the right gear and clothes, which tools to take, and what about maintenance on the road? What paperwork do I need for myself and the bike? How do I ship the bike to another continent? What are the tricks to cross a border easily, deal with corrupt officials, connect with other travelers, send e-mail from Timbuktu, find accommodations and stay healthy on the road? Time for questions, demonstrations of bike mods, gear and sharing checklists."
