Thumbs up HU travelers meeting in Bolivia March/April 2017

Samaipata Motoclub Bolivia

We are a newly (06/2016) established motorcycle club here in the Bolivian mountains village of Samaipata and we want to welcome travelers, help them out and organize motorcycle travelers meetings.

At the moment (07/2016) we are four bikers, two of us veteran motorcycle travelers and two future motorcycle travelers. We speak 7 languages and our main point of reference in Samaipata is the local bar La Boheme at the plaza.

For March/April 2017 (no exact date yet) we plan to organize a HU travelers meeting near Samaipata at a very beautiful location. Of course we need first to contact Grant and Susan about this. Are you coming?

Please contact us, if you want to meet or you are in need of anything.

Gustavo, Luigi, Serdar and Mika

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.
