2017 Calendar Contest is open for voting!
Help us pick the Horizons Unlimited Photo Contest winners for the 2017 HU Calendar! We've narrowed it down to 30 pics, all of them are fantastic but the calendar only has 13 pages!
The Grand Prize winner will receive a Touratech Compañero riding suit. The Second Prize winner will receive a Touratech Suspension. The best 13 photos will be used in the Horizons Unlimited calendar, and we will share the profits with the photographers. All Winners will also get a free calendar, and 1 year Gold Member status on the HUBB! And of course there's the fame...
Contest rules
Each picture will have its own post, a 'Like' for the post is a vote. You must be registered on the HUBB to vote here.
Voting will close on Feb 21 at midnight PST.
In order to get a good balance of photographers and photos of various categories in the calendar, we are responsible for the final selections, taking into account votes/likes/shares on all the 'social' platforms, including the HUBB.
Enjoy!
Grant & Susan
Inspiring, Informing and Connecting travellers since 1997

New to Horizons Unlimited?

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.
