Hi Grant,

we're now sure that we can attend the meeting, so we registered just now. However, there was a problem with the T-Shirt link - it didn't work. I am not sure if it was our problem or if there is something wrong....?

Cheers,
Heike & Filippo

Thanks Heike and Filippo!

There are no t-shirts for Thailand Meeting, sorry. I do need to fix the page so it says that, so thanks for reminding me!

Heaven and Earth Golden Triangle Riders “Welcome” January 11, 2013 Announced

It has been confirmed: The Heaven and Earth Golden Triangle Riders will host the January 11, 2013 “Welcome Horizons Unlimited Travellers.” The society will sponsor the one hour “Beer and Jameson Whiskey” hospitality hour in the Real Golden Triangle Rider Spirit at the Rider’s Corner Inn and Restaurant in Chiang Mai, Thailand.

The first evening of the 2013 Horizons Unlimited Traveller’s Meeting, Friday, January 11, 2012 has been designed as an evening for serious motorbike travellers to mix and chill.

The one hour Welcome Reception is free, offering an opportunity to share information, find answers, and see who is in, around, and passing through the Golden Triangle. Stay for swilling and chilling into the evening.

The Rider’s Corner Inn and Restaurant in Chiang Mai, Thailand is the international motorbike focal point for serious motorbike travellers seeking the best information on motorbike travel in Southeast Asia. The most honest and up-to-date maps, travel tips, and outstanding food have made the Thai owned, English speaking motorbike traveller restaurant and bar the epicenter for motorbike travellers in Southeast Asia.

Need a unique T-shirt souvenir from motorbiking in the Golden Triangle? Welcome to GT-Rider.Net - Accessory & Merchandise - GT-Rider.Net Or the freshest, most up-to-date paper or GPS maps for Laos, North Thailand, Cambodia? The Riders Corner (www.ridersconrer.net) is where they can be found during the January 11 and 12 HU Traveller's Meeting/
along with a wealth of quality travel time.

To see what happened at the 2012 Horizons Unlimited Traveller’s Meeting, a report is here: Thailand 2012 6th Annual HU Travellers Meeting, January 13-14, 2012 | Horizons Unlimited

From Singapore in 3 Weeks?

We've just dropped the bikes off at the port in Yokohama so that they can catch a RORO to Singapore. They should be there on December 17 and I'm hoping we can be on the road by the December 21. That would give us 3 weeks to ride up to Chang Mai. Obviously this would be very rushed and we wouldn't see anything but that way we could gather collective wisdom on touring SE Asia at the HU meeting and then start our tour from Chang Mai.

Does this seem even remotely reasonable? We've never been in SE Asia before and have no idea if riding 2,700 km in three weeks is even possible but would love to attend the HU event. We could even drum up a bit of a slideshow if called upon.

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.
