can't register, technical problem
 
Hi all,
:oops2: registration form doesn't work, send button stays gray.

Here's my detrails:

Bike: BMW R1200GS
From: Stuttgart, Germany

Was at the Germany meeting last weekend. I'll arrive in BsAs by ship early September. Will do a loop north to Uruguay/Paraguay and will try my best to be at the meeting in December. Then Patagonia, hope to reach Alaska in 2012 or 2013. After that maybe Australia/Asia.
I could do a slide show about dirt riding in Cambodia and/or F650 Dakar / 1200GSA Eastern Europe. I'll have the pics and a laptop with me.
See you in Viedma!

2011
 
I'm planning a trip to Ushuaia from Reno, NV starting in early October 2011. Does anyone know where the Horizons Unlimited Travelers Meeting will be held in 2011 and if the dates would be 9-11 December if the same weekend as the 2010 meeting? I thought that previous meetings had been held in Ushuaia?

Any ideas?

Doug

NO guarantees on the exact date, but expect second weekend in Dec. Always held in Viedma. There is also always a party of some sort, totally unofficial in Ushuaia for Christmas / New Years.

G, on terrible connection in the wilds of BC

I'm in
 
Just registered.

We'll be 2up and travelling North from Ushuaia up the Andes. This will be our first HU meet and our first big overland ride too. Hopefully this will be worth the 1000 mile detour from our planned route!

Hope to meet many new friends and maybe learn a thing or two from all you experienced old hands :biggrin3:

See you there beer

Anyone in the area now?
 
Hi all!

Hmmmm, not much happening in this threat. Does someone know how many are coming?

I'm in the region already, right now in Santa Theresita, about 100km north of Mar de Plata. I have a couple of weeks to kill before the meeting and might head down to Peninsula Valdez and backtrack north to Viedma again.

I can't find Oscar Knecht's contact information on HU. If you have his mail or phone number please pm me.

Cheers
Frank

Hi Frank

He's in the Viedma 'phone book. Can't remember if there's more than one Knecht but his house number's 33 and it's under his wife's initial, N.

Don't miss the meeting, it's brilliant. Oscar and family are wonderful hosts. I've been twice and will be sad to miss it this year: roll on 2011!

Regards, Mick

The phone number is on the Argentina Meeting web page near the bottom, and so is his email address. :)

Have fun, the reports are always great!

Thanks Mick and Grant. I ha've had contact with Oscar already. :-)

in Viedma now
 
I'm in Viedma already. Nice, laid back town. Weather is beautiful and the nearby (60km from town, 30km from the campsite) Sea Lion colony is amazing. Oscar and his wife Nancy are really nice people. Right now I'm staying at Hotel "El Vasco", Street 25 de Mayo, 2 blocks from the river, 120 Pesos. Thursday I'll be staying at the campsite "Los Trentinos" in El Condor. See you all there!

Mick O'Malley 7 Dec 2010 06:52

Hi Frank

Be sure to get the ferry across the river to Carmen de Patagones: it's beautiful over there.

Regards, Mick

Paulo Assis 9 Dec 2010 02:33

Have a very good meeting!
Don't forget to sign the book and
BEWARE WITH THOSE ABSLOLUTLY FURIOUS DOGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :)
