What a fantastic weekend. Well done to Char and Gabe and all the team - it takes a lot of work behind the scenes to make sure everything works so smoothly. It's in my calendar for next year so it better be on again! Big thanks guys.

wished it was longer
Hi, everyone, first, thanks to Gabe and Char but especially you all for being there, a really relaxed and nice place to be, looking foreward to the next one. Fantastic weekend, with a really good rideout and certainly an iron man achievement for determination out there . Sad that I couldnt get there until later on Friday but gotta pay the bills somehow. Glad I was on the SR40 as on the way back from work Monday evening my DRZ400 gearbox went (well something did and now theres a hole in my crank .
Was really nice to see some familiar faces again, and some really good presentations too, excellent weekend all round, Thanks to all.

Mendip 2013 not on.
I've had a couple of queries re Mendip 2013, and sorry to say there won't be one. We (all) have limited bandwidth and it's just too much this year. We will revisit it for 2014.

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.
