Can you drop my bike off in Miami?

If you were going Cartagena to Miami, I´d be there.

I´m heading back home and planning on shipping from Cartagena. I´ve done Central America on the way down and don´t need to do that again. So I´m thinking of shipping to the USA and riding home to Canada.

Would you mind sharing which shipping company/agent you are using and what was involved in arranging this.

Thanks
Robert

Good Luck

Barney

Thanks for the info. I´ll send him an email to get the ball rolling.

I´ll start another topic so as to not take away from your potential replies.

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.
