Thanks! Glad you all enjoyed it! We were very pleased, and Norbert is good to go for next year - date soon, but expect about the same.
Grant and Susan, for Norbert and Francoise too

Oh yeh ! And thanks to everyone who stopped for me on the E40 on the way home. My fuel pump packed up. Luckily included in my insurance I had breakdown recovery - they picked me up dropped me at Calais - I pushed the bike on board - and pushed it off - oh the embarrassment - During the 3 hour wait at Dover to be picked up I chatted to a Dutch couple on an M21 who it turns out are great friends with the owner of the last M21 I actually met on the road - 16 years ago in the USA !
Home safe at 11.00 pm - so much for the 8.00am early start that day...

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.
