just arrived in Buenos Aires

Simon & I (Lisa) http:www.2ridetheworld.com have been on the road for just over 2 years. We have just arrived in Buenos Aires with our two BMW´s.....well, we hope to pick them up from the port tomorrow!
If anyone is around the BA area we would love to meet up for a cerveza, or two.... We do however aim to go and see Javier and Sanda at Dakar Motos before we leave BA.
Let us know who´s out there......

Hi Alex..
Our aim is to spend at least 14 months in South America visiting all the countries if possible. The first 6 months we will be traveling into Uruguay then Brazil, Paraguay and then back into Argentina to go all the way south ready for Xmas at the ´end of the world´!!
If you can forward the Uruguay info that would be great.
Cheers

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
