Ride Article
Hi everyone,
I'm new to the board and wanted to say hello to everyone. These boards are very confusing so if I'm posting this in the wrong place please excuse. I'd like to post the following link to another site where I've been lucky enough to have an article published about the 30 day and 12,000 mile ride my wife and I took this summer. A circumnavigation of the USA.
For the moderators -- The site does have a commercial aspect to it, but the forums and articles are free, so please bear with me. As a Californian I tend to migrate to sites that pay specific attention to the areas I'm most likely to ride in. Thanks !
The article can be found here -

Cheers!

Nice Pix!
Hi there jimmies. Nice article. I have not had time to read it all, or the other articles on the site but it's well worth reading so far.
As far as being on the right part of the HUBB, it does seem to be the best place, but most travel stories are posted on the Blogs section (over there on the left). You will probably get more readers if it's posted there.
Cheers!

Liked the story - reminded me of staying in Hood River for a couple of days. Hated the metal surface on the bridge - the front wheel did whatever it liked!

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.
