Invite to ride in AUSTRALIA
Hi all its been a long time since I posted on here. When I was organising My trip to Africa in the mid 2000s, this site was a god send, so much help and info I don't think I would have actually done trip with out Horizons Unlimited.
Since coming home from My time OS, life has sort of taken over.
My reason for writing is Im now in a position to do more for charity. With My family and friends Im organising a RIDE ACROSS AUSTRALIA calling it PAMS MC RIDE. PAMS stands for Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney. Ive got My inspiration for the ride from Winifred Wells, who as a 22year old in 1950 rode a Royal Enfield 350 Bullet from Perth in Western Australia to Sydney in New South Wales. Winifred took 21 days to travel some 5,500 miles, about 9,000klm. Given the roads at the time it was a mighty trip, even today some people have concerns about a trip of that sort. Winifred is still living and resides with one of her daughters in Victoria, Australia. The PAMS ride will be raising funds for Guide Dogs and Where wanting to raise aus$105,000 which will bread, raise, train and match 3 Guide dogs to 3 people with vision loss. For costs, how to donate and more info We can be contacted at pamsmcride@gmail.com. Our Web site will be up and running soon. Ill be leading the ride on a Royal Enfield 350 Classic. For those that enter a prize of a NEW ROYAL ENFIELD 350 is on offer. All the best regards Brian (Beetle) Bayley

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.
