Early Birds = mouthfull of worms..!!
A tad early this but nothing like a bit of commitment eh..! Can't get to Lumb Farm (out uk) so looking forward to this also, a prime chance to show off the efforts made and test the pre-trip bike, hoprfully encourage other trip ( xllentadventures.co.uk) members to attend and have a "Gaggle" of XL's in the camping field....!!!!!! All the best Gabe..

I'll be doing the full size range this year
Small - my Cornwall meet in Feb
Medium - Booked in for Bristol
Large - Barring disasters I will be at Ripley too.
Mark is certainly booked in for Ripley, I know he is keen to go to Bristol but had still to ask the question last time I spoke to him.
I also have clearance for a 6 week trip in 2013 although if Mark's Olympic tickets don't come through that might become 2012. Just got to work out how far we can reasonably go in 6 weeks.

Just signed up - missed Ripley this year!
Just signed up for the Autumn meet - need to make up for minor disaster taking she who must be obeyed as a pillion to France for the first time two weeks ago. Weather and location in Brittany amazing - 3 and half hours of driving rain from Portsmouth to home in the driving rain damn nearly got me divorced!!!! Won't be doing that again..... Will it be sunny in September then????
See you there. Bruises should have just about faded ...

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.
