Space in your tent?
Tentless but non-snoring triumph rider looking for some floor space in a tent for the meeting at the weekend. Will help with money.
Any offers?

Not going to the meet but in the unlikely event of you living near central scotland I can lend you a tent for it.

You can get a tent in Woolies for a tenner, and Millets sells them from about £30 upwards. Or a plastic sheet from a building site for free.

Aye, I hear Argos actually does very (this is obviously relative) good tents for very, very cheap.

Tent
Thanks for those suggestions. I've just got myself sorted at Argos (tent for £7.99, sleeping bag for £14.99!) I had no idea they could be picked up so cheap. I know they won't last a lifetime but I'm only going to Ripley!

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.
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.
