Cheers kind Sir for compiling and maintaining the waypoints database, an awesome resource for us mere mortals!
The winter will be spent reading through your previous trip reports and dreaming of summer

Thanks Colebatch for all the effort you've shown to fellow riders. I downloaded the file and I'm sure I will be using it next year on my Hungary-Magadan-Hungary bike trip.
Great job and a lot of work.
By the way let suppose it will be a dry summer in 2015 in the old summer road area, would you try it solo with F650Gs Dakar packed up?
Thanks for help.

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.
