sand mats - living near Presteigne, Powy's
Hi, I have a set. purchased after 11 months of our 13 month trip in Mauritania. Sand plates are living near Presteigne, west of Hereford.

I have kept them, but have no massive use for them. Yours for £150 for the two

History, we bought them in Atar, Mauritnaia from local. They got them, as the stories was told from a Dutch overland group. They are proper heavy duty Psp sand plates. We had a 3 tonne plus Landcruiser and would only trust these babies if we got stuck

see pics for more info

Thanks for the replies, Anchor out of stock, as are Leavesleys, and Withams.
@ Alan: I think for £150 yours are aluminium? I'm really after steel but thanks.
Simon.

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.
