Smile Horizons Unlimited Ireland July 18-20, 2014

18-20 July, 3 great days of adventure travel! One week later, even more chance of warm weather!

We're back in Enniskillen, what a fantastic venue and the friendliest people you will ever meet!

Typical comment from 2013: "The food was delicious (without a doubt the best I ever had at a rally or meet up), the entertainment fabulous and the presentations mind-blowing!"

More comments on last years thread at: http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...uly-12-a-66570

It's that time of the year again, time to make plans for a return to Enniskillen.

I might even have to go on a ride somewhere first then tell you all about it.

I'm gutted I can't make it over this year. I had an absolute ball with everyone last year. I came away feeling that I'd been surrounded by friends. There were so many bonuses for being at the Meet.

Here goes just some of them: The great atmosphere, the venue, the camping area, the enthusiasm and helpfulness of the organisers and volunteers, the excellent presentations, the beautiful area and, well, I could go on. I hope you have a fantastic time!

Sorry you will not be able to make it over to Enniskillen this year, Sam. You deserved (needed) a break after the fantastic effort at HUBB UK this year.

Perhaps a few others may be tempted to consider attending our distinctively Irish take on a Horizons Unlimited meeting in Enniskillen on 18/20 July.

We have a few late additions to the galaxy of presenters this year.

Paddy Tyson will be giving us all the lowdown on his recent trip to Nepal and Tibet.

Merv Colton is returning from his two + years slow trip round South America in a Unimog. Merv's ability to capture fantastic photographs on his travels is legendary.

And others in the wings!!

Registrations are still open at this stage and you can be assured of your place by registering

Cheers! Full on from everyone involved

Your line up of presenters is spot on.

And I do wonder what sort of Irish surprise you have lined up for everyone this year Besides pints of the real stuff that is!

Hi Susan - and all!!! So looking forward to coming back to Ireland for the Hubb event. Decided to throw a few days either side for a little mini adventure holiday too! I'm speaking this year so pretty excited about that! Will be talking about crocodile wrestling and Elephant off ground tic, Near drowning in the Zambezi and armed militia in Mozambique - oh and the peace and tranquility of the continent that is glorious Africa...

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.

Susan and Grant Johnson Read more about Grant & Susan's story

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.
