Who lives in or around Cartagena...

Hi, this is Martin. I live in Cartagena and ride my bike all over Colombia. I have several bikes so I rent them out and also do tours. I would like to meet with other riders and motorcycle enthusiasts in the area. Perhaps we can get together some kind of club. It could be fun!

Hi Martin

I'll be looking for you at the end of Oct 2009 when I get off the boat from Panama. There is supposed to be a big event held in Colombia right at the end of Oct/first of Nov.

Would be great to ride with a local that knows their way around to all the good stuff. I've heard many wonderful things about your country.

Hola Martin,
I assume you're back in Cartagena. I came through there last October on my way south but you were in the US. Sorry I missed you.

I'll be coming back through on my way north about early October. I live in Panama, but will be flying back to BA to get my bike in July and ride through Brazil and Venezuela. Hope we can meet up then.

Steve

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.
