VOTING IS OPEN: HU Photo Contest for the 2019 Calendar
UPDATE: May 23, 2018
VOTING IS CLOSED! and the final results are in. Here are the Top 30 photos, in no particular order, that people voted for. The winning 13 images be featured in the 2019 HU Calendar - your best adventure planning tool to inspire and visualize the steps to get you "out there".
VOTE FOR YOUR FAVOURITE 13 by "Liking" them.
Voting closes: Sunday, May 13th at midnight, Pacific (PDT)
VOTING RULES ON HUBB:
Each picture will have its own post, a 'Like' for the post is a vote. You must be a registered HUBB user to vote here. If you're not registered on the HUBB, you can vote on Facebook or Instagram (horizonsunlimited_com).
In order to get a good balance of photographers and photos of various categories in the calendar, HU is responsible for the final selections, taking into account the weighted values of votes/likes/shares where they were originally posted on FB, Instagram, and the HUBB.
NOTE: Very occasionally there are 2 pics by the same photographer in the top 30, but no photographer can have more than 1 pic in the calendar. The top 13 winners get a free calendar and 1 year Gold Member status on the HUBB. And, of course, there's the glory...
On behalf of Grant & Susan,
Grace
HU Communications
P.S. You guys never make it easy for us to short-list the Top 30! So many fantastic submissions each year.

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.
Read more about Grant & Susan's story
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.
