17. Finland
This county is basically a huge lake with bits of tree-covered land between. For that reason for us it is not a real riding destination.

18. Russian federation
We only had a taste of the country on a 72 hour visa free visit without the bikes to St. Petersburg. We will be in Russia again on the way to Mongolia.

25. Switzerland
The cost of things here is outrageous. There is some nice riding in the Alps, but we think the Alps in Austria and Italy are better.

27. Austria
Austria is probably the most beautiful country we have seen yet. We never wanted to leave the stunning town of Rizlern. We will be back in the Alps next year.

28. Andorra
Agh don’t go here on a weekend the hords of cross border shoppers are a nightmare. I think other than the tick mark we would have avoided this country.

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.
