Appealing to North Americans

Hi Guys,

I live here in South Africa at the moment and am trying to
get in contact with the editor for RoadRunner magazine to
see if they might be interested in a series of articles about my
African tour-www.petoparis.com
Does anyone know their email address/has one of their mags which
a contact email might be in?
Also can anyone suggest any other magazines which are popular
travel bike magazines that I might look out for?
Any help would be great guys
Thanks
Mike

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.
