Question
Hi Liam and Drew.

Hope all going well for the organisation of HU travellers meeting. Just a question on bringing my motorhome and bike to the event. Is there a place set aside for the likes of motorhomes/caravans?

Cheers

Colly

Hi Colly

Thanks for your registration safely received.

Brian in Enniskillen has confirmed that there is room for up to 10 camper vans so you should be ok. But don't forget to also bring the bike as plans are afoot for several on and off road ride outs for those so inclined!!

Meeting
Any one from the South going over to the meeting. I am thinking of going over on the Thursday and coming back on the Sunday. Not been to Ireland before on the bike so should be a good few days away.

Been looking at the ferry from Fishguard to Rosslaire, its got to be a better ride than going all the way to Liverpool, and means a longer ride in Ireland.

Don't forget to check ferry deals with Nutts Travel (see above on thread) And remember an Irish question and answer..........where does this road go to.....Anywhere you want it too!!!

Hope to see you there!

Nuts travel
Already been in contact with Nutts, just waiting to see if any one else from my area is up it. Looking forward to the meeting as I have not been away on the bike for overa year.

Nutts Travel
First the bad news

I have just received an email from Rita at Nutts Travel advising that the return ferry costs for Stena have increased to £85 to end of June and £89 in July/August.All other return ferry costs remain the same. For full details check out the HU Ireland meeting details or phone Rita at Nutts Travel.

The good news.

These return ferry rates from and to Ireland are available to all Horizons Unlimited members/ participants. If you can't make it over to Enniskillen on 28/30 May you now have the opportunity to plan your holiday trip at a later time. Remember to mention Horizons Unlimited to get advantage of these rates.

Not sure if this will tempt or scare you!!

A few intrepid eejits have been exploring the boreens and backroads of the West of Ireland using the excuse of planning a runout for this event.

If you are attending (and if not why not!!?) you may now be faced with a very difficult choice. Either a runout through over some spectacular routes OR attending a series of presentations and practical demonstrations some of which will take place at the same time. We are working to allow you to do both! Quart into pint pot comes to mind!

Looking through the current registrations, it is heartening to see quite a few ladies will be attending. There will be plenty to interest everyone.

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.
