Hi Steve, have a great time in Morroco. Would be good to see you at Blue Hills, but too early to say yet for me.

Is there a way to book online 'cos i don't have access to a printer at the mo for the pdf.

Can i just e-mail the details required in the booking form and pay via paypal?

Looking forward to getting back down Kernow on two wheels.

Hi Akceller, sorry about the late reply, no probs with an email with a few details ie big tent/ small tent, No. of people etc and a deposit via PayPal on the website bluehillscampsite.co.uk
I need to know numbers ASAP
I can put up a small marquee and get some in, prepare a firepit and Loo said she will do a big pot of chilli. I can even take someone up for a fly in my microlight to see Cornwall from the air (weather permitting)
I will need some commitment on the numbers to make it happen.
I can do an off road ride if a few are interested.
The cost is £6.00 for one person in a small tent per night with free hot showers etc.
We could also show a short film with some cool music on our RTW trip from a few years ago.
Hope to meet old and new friends and chat about bikes and travel
Gary

Hi Gary,

email and deposit sent, excitement building, lol.

Count me in for chilli if its not toooooo hot but I'll stop off at Healeys to pick up some scrumpy on my way.http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...ilies/beer.gif

I'm up for a little gentle off-roading, I've got a Triumph Explorer but not much dirt experience but eager to give it a go, especially with experienced assistance along for advice.

See you then.

That's great to hear Ian, I was hoping you might be around; definitely put the pressure on Sam, it's about time the Scotsman made it down to these parts again! I'll PM you about a ride out,
cheers Tiffany

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.
