I'm planning on camping Friday night and sharing a B&B with my other half on Saturday (if we can find one - the local inn is already booked up)
So put me down for brekkie on the Saturday morning please.
Paul

Thanks Rob, but we're sorted now. I think we're less than half a mile from the brewery pub.

Hi there
It's Little Miss Unreliable! Sorry for being useless. Just logged on for the first time in ages. Is there room for a little one still on the 1/2 March?
Got to get the bike fixed first but will try to do that next week. I feel the need to redeem myself. Willing to camp on Saturday night but it would be nice to see you.
Do you need confirmation by a certain date if there is still room?
Cheers
Kate

Unfortunately, I'll be in Spain or I'd come along. Sounds fun though.

Hi Katee
It would be great to see you there. There's no limit on numbers of people turning up. I just need to confirm with the pub if people want breakfast on Sat and/or Sun morning.
cheers
Chris

looking forward to the meet
I've just had my knee ACL restrung (2 screws and an old hamstring) so I'm still on crutches at the moment so two weeks so far without riding a bike and at least another four before I can throw a leg across either of my ktm’s.
all is not lost as I am going to get down to the meet in the sidecar so no green lanes for me, guess I will just have to prop the bar up and test all the s just to make sure that they are all in good order.(someone got to do it)
Looking forward to seeing everyone
Ride safe
Cheers
Iain

Hello, Serf/Smurf here,
I've been trawling back through the messages above and come up with this cunning list. I'll assume things are correct if i don't hear from you.

Pls advise if a ? should be a y or n, or if if the ys or ns are wrong. The pub would like to know breakfast numbers.

Camping is free, so if you don't turn up it doesn't matter. I'll try for a brewery tour for 4pm on Sat. Hopefully Brian/Fritz will be able to lead the way on a rideout of some sort.

name - sat b/fast - sun b/fast - sat brew tour

New to Horizons Unlimited?

New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
