Cairo, Egypt.
Not a shop, but rather a closed 2-car garage in Cairo. If you need space to work on your bike/car while passing through Egypt then email me. The garage is moderately equipped as a small workshop. This is where I work on my Jeep and currently rebuilding my Tenere.

There is a motorbike repairer in Cairo. He'll probably have oil for you. He is well known by overlanders.
The workshop is in an alley off Le Corniche (north bound) on the right just after Mercedes Benz. (GPS: N30deg01,289 E31deg13,825). Arriving from Suez, take the ring road south. Immediately before the Nile take the junction north onto the El-Corniche. Follow this for a while and over a steel bridge. At the other end of the bridge you will see a mercedes benz dealer and a little further a VW dealer on the right. Just after this and immediately before the road sign to the Citadel there is a small alleyway to the right. Anwar's workshop is just down this alleyway. Opens from 12:00pm
From the roundabout in front of the museum and hilton, head southwest. You will intersect after a couple of blocks with the Corniche -RIVER FRONT ROAD- and the Shepard Hotel will be on your left. Drive south along the Cornish for about five minutes, passing the Four Seasons until you get to a fair sized roundabout. You will know this is the correct roundabout as there is a large wall remaining fromn ancient times and this road has signs that say -CITADEL-. The bike shop is located behind the south east corner but you have to access from the other side of the road. To do so, dirve straight for a couple of minutes and stay in the right hand lane. You will see the road ride up into an overpass but stay right and loop back underneath to u-turn. As you come back north, you will pass a vw dealer and a mercedes dealer. Just before the right hand turn at the rounabout, there is a sign that says -CITADEL. The alley way to his shop is immediately under this sign.
His name is - Mohammed Anwar

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.
