Thankyou Nigel
Hi all,
I shipped a bike to NZ this year (Feb 2017) to ride around south island and Nigel was very knowledgeable on road conditions, accommodation etc in South Island before I shipped the bike. This helped me with preliminary planning. After I arrived in NZ I made arrangements to call in to see Nigel just to say hello and thankyou. He is a very interesting and intelligent person and I could have spent a whole day (or more) talking to Nigel about travel, work and life in general. Great cup of tea and scones with jam! Thankyou Nigel. Great bloke.

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.
