HU meeting Viedma



Hope I can make it down to Viedma this year again, really want to meet Oskar and Nancy again ... but its a long way from where I live in Bolivia ... if I remember correctly the last time I rode down I did 7000km (return journey) in two weeks to go to the meeting.

See you there (inshallah)

Viedma 3.-4.12.2016

Hi all,

I will be (inshallah) in Viedma for the HU mini meeting from 03. to 04.12.2016 ....


As it is around 3000km one way from where I live, I only want to ride one way ... so will look at buying a bike in Argentina, leaving one of my bikes in Argentina, or asking a friend to lend me one of his bikes.

See you 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.
