We have a blog too! :-)
After sailing with Grimaldi from London to BA where we finally met the infamous Javier & Sandra we hit the road on our two F650s looking for adventures and with less than 6 months riding experience each before we started, we were sure to find it!
Chloe & I have been to Ushuaia and are currently in Peru and heading to Chivay/Nasca/Cusco over the next few days.
After a car crash in Rio Grande (TDF), running from forest fires in Torres Del Paine and dropping the bike in a River near San Martin de Los Andes. We went on to build a library with our bare hands for a small Bolivian Community before looking further north for more adventures and writing material!
Its all on our blog if you have a spare 5 minutes, routes, photos, stories and advice. Feel free to keep in touch if you have any questions.
All the best,
Chris & Chloe

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.
