Hopefully would be able to do weekend 12th/13th but may also be away - have time off work the week before so could be good.

The bike broken down was Buell with a broken belt - we were in lochcarron the bike still in applecross - so i reckon all thetools in the world couldn't of fixed that one!

I will keep my open to see if this date is confirmed and will let you know as soon as poss if I can come - cheers

what about the weekend after, 19th / 20th?

by the way, I think if the Jedburgh campsite are willing to take us then it'd be a good option. plenty of (road) routes around there too.

cheers,

doug

New to HUBB and it would be good to have a chance to meet some of you as I couldn't get to the derby meeting.
I'm possibly away 7-11th Sept but may be able to do that weekend or the following one if in Jedburgh as it's easy to ride up on the Saturday morning if I can't do the friday

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.
