Thanks Tim
Yes weather can be variable at 4000m so should be fun. Can't be any worse than climbing in Scotland in winter time though !!
Hi Darren
Nice set up - and very clean. Will keep an eye out for you. PM me if you want contact details. Having done a few bike trips through Central Australia (on a GS Pig) I know that any back up is always welcome. Have a safe trip south.

Hi
And if you happen to see a blue and white camper called Moglet, come and have a cuppa tea!
100kph is too quick for her I'm afraid!

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.
