How to find the HU Germany Meeting...

Hi guys,

just how to find our HU Germany Meeting:

First go for Weinheim or Heppenheim at the so called Bergstrasse(south of Frankfurt). Then turn east into the Odenwald forest, beautiful riding in this area! Our little Gasthaus"Zur Schneeburg" is in a little side valley, not very well known...

So: Weinheim, through the big tunnel, then right turn direction Ober-Liebersbach, first traffic light another right, 10 min. uphill, then little valley to the left - Gasthaus on the right side!

Gasthaus "Zur Schneeburg" 69509 Ober-Liebersbach

Or follow the bright orange HU Meeting Signs!!!

See you tomorrow - Jens

Hello there German HU Organiser,

I am coming through to the meeting, late friday night or early saturday morning. I hope that is okay with you after reading one had to be there at the latest friday afternoon.

We will be 2 people, tent.
I have been late at organising. I would just like to let you know that I will be coming, so please count me in.
I'll pay at the door. I did not find the document to fill in, but I can email you my information if you need it.

Lets hope you don't turn me away at the door. I'm coming from the centre of France, 711km.

Thank you in advance.

Ta-all-the-way (Patrick & Christine)

Patrick and Christine, no problem! We'd never turn travellers away. No problem paying on the day when you get there.

We only recommend you be there at the latest Friday to get the most out of the event. You CAN come any time you like!

We hope you have a great time at the meeting!

Hello!
If anyone is heading to the meeting in Bulgaria after Germany, & are travelling thru Munich, I have a friend there with a set of brake pads for my harley, and I need to get them here. I leave for the middle east in a few weeks, & hate to rely on bulgarian post!

Thanks, & have a great time there!

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.
