You're all paid and recorded, all you need to do is show up on the day and you're in!

We're way behind on acknowledgements for payment, too much else to do and we generally do them in batches close to the event.

Have fun at the Meeting!

Hi Countryman, 4 wheels eh. But what a great choice! Of course you are welcome to turn up in it. There's going to be a separate area for those with 'sleeping' vehicles as they aren't allowed on the camping fields. You are welcome to tent next to it or just over the way from it. When you arrive at registration they will let you know where to go. Any queries on the say, just ask for me

The full presentation schedule is available to download as a PDF from the Ripley event page here.

Always subject to last-minute changes of course, but this is the final version we're hoping to stick with.

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.
