Alas you will feel 'used', even perhaps a bit cheated but now you will be able to recognise those who do this... It happens.
Many do not have your courage/desire/heart/ability/honesty etc and will always try to 'catch a tow'.
Don't judge but do learn to cut loose quickly!
Look at what you have been able to achieve for yourself,
be proud and ride on. Life just gets better!
Remember that to grow a fabulous rose, you do have to surround it with cow sh*t! The rose remains, the sh*t disappears

Hi LadyCruiser,
I enjoy your ridereport very much.
I visited Barcelona last year on my bike and I realy liked that city. Riding in the Pyrenees is also beautifull. If you have a chance, you should visit the monastery of Montserrat. A monastery high in the mountains of the Pyrenees. The road to it is a wonderfull road.
Good luck with your trip.

Hi Jan,
thanks for your post
Pyrenees are great and they aren't so crowded as Alps

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.
