Yorkshire Meet with Trail ride out

Just seeing if anyone would be interested in a meet in the Yorkshire Dale's ?

The last one we had back on November 2009 was a tad wet,but I'm sure everyone had fun

If we do it again we could start to plan it now,but this time do it before we put the clock's back .

The area we have in mind as a bunk houes,so you only need to bring a sleeping bag.
There is a drying room just incase the weather is wet, and kitchen ,and the pub is only 100 yards away

for thoes that still want to camp there is room for a few tent's.

The cost is only a few pound's but I will get the correct price soon.

We can once again do a B road ride out and a group for the easy trail ride and a harder trail ride for those hardcore rider's !!!.

So ...anyone interested

Hi Dazzer

Excellent idea, we'll be up (down) for that unless it's the weekend of Oct 23/24 because we can't do that weekend. Just let us know when though. If you need anything doing, just shout.

Yeah we would be up for that if we can make the dates. Not sure about the trail ride but the pub 100 yards away sounds good.

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.
