Booked months ago, when just back from the Stans, and we will be on duty again, doing a presentation.

We will arrive Friday and will come with the car as we bring our little Brazilian dog: Scruffy !
Can't wait to go back and catch up with everyone

In 2013 I visited the HUBB meeting in Nakusp, British Columbia, which was a great event! I did a little presentation about motorcycling and traveling in Scandinavia. The meeting was the final highlight of my three month Cross-Canada trip.

At the meeting in UK this year I will (maybe) give a little presentation about exactly that three-month / 26.000km trip through Canada! :-)

After the meeting the plan is to visit some national parks in the UK for some hiking. Actually Bike&Hike is a nice combination!

Used travel kit &equipment you don't want, sell at HUBBUK!!!
This year the charity Motorcycle Outreach will have a stall to sell your used travel kit and equipment on your behalf, for a price decided by you, in return for a 10% donation of the sale price to Motorcycle Outreach (or more if you're feeling generous!) Please help this worthy charity and do yourself a favour at the same time- bring your stuff along to the stall from Friday onwards. Clean and serviceable items only please - e.g. camping equipment, bike stuff, clothing, tents, guidebooks - anything travel-related!
All items need to be clearly marked with your name and the sale price you would like. The stall will be open from [0900 hrs Friday] to 1800hrs on Saturday.
(Any items not sold and not collected by 11 am on the Sunday will be disposed of.)"

Hi all. Due to being sold a complete write off, I now dont have a bike to ride until i can find £800 to fix it.

So if anyone wants my HUBBUK full weekend ticket with camping then its yours for £50.

A significant saving for one of the biggest and best meetings in the calendar.

I'm gutted not to be going but needs must.

Cheers, Ted

That's great news, Jo. I joined London Valley earlier this year, but haven't had a chance to get out. And frankly the idea of taking my V-Strom on greenlanes with my level of experience is a bit daunting.

Might be a good opportunity seeing as you're there and Coach Stroud's absence has freed up most of my schedule.

Can't make another HUBB UK Meeting.

Hi Everyone,

Just registered to find out more about this event. While I can register here, I can't seem to register for the event? Too late I guess...

Does this mean I can attend as a day visitor only or not at all?

Wildman: Would be very interested in your ticket, but if not registered, could I use it?

Any help/guidance would be appreciated and apologies in advance if the answer has been staring me in the face.

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.
