Details

Hi Danny, hoping to make this and any ride outs I go on will depend upon which bike I am using. Any details of costs or payments? Is this going to be a HUBB registration thingy or do I have to rock up and pay in person beforehand as in 2013? (it was a nice day out as I recall) LOL


Looking forward to it.

I haven't got to any of the many HUBB events that I've planned to attend, and even paid for, but this one is in the diary and I'm hopeful!

I'm really interested in the "learning from experts" part of this! I've mentioned here a few times that I'd like to be bald to do this - keep us posted on what might be on offer, and I'd like to be there!

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.
