Unfortunately, I cannot attend the weekend (I don't have an off road bike anyway) but I would be interested in meeting some of the local HUBBers.

When will you arrive in Masham? Any idea of the venue?

WooHoo! just about to get ready to leave Carmarthen and just as the met office predicted...it's stopped raining. Seems I'm going to be chasing the weather front all the way up; just hope it keeps travelling faster than my airhead (doesn't have to be too fast to do that !)

See you all later.

Just a quick thank you to Dazza and all the others Steve etc who made the day fantastic. Really well organised rides, excellent lanes, and a pleasant & tranquil atmosphere, ofset with incesnce sticks (lavender) that helped ward off the rain for a great day.

Fantastic- thanks very much- I hope there is one again in the near future!

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.
