Hi Hemuli, I'll get off the boat in Devonport on Sunday. Dunno where I'm heading first, suspect the weather forecast might dictate that. Probably looking to camp most of the time in Tas.
Are you using a local sim card? I'll PM you my number later, and you can send me a text where you are and where you're going, and if we end up in the same place then I always like to finish a days riding with a few drinks

Hi Brenda,
Oh, that is a shame, but enjoy your trip!
It is raining in Hobart and should rain for the next few days.

Hi Nath,
I will be leaving Tasmania on Sunday from Devonport. I will come there from somewhere from East.
Could have spent more time over here, because there is just so much to see!

Well if I arrive on Sunday, and you're leaving the same day, then I guess that scuppers that then! If I bump into you in Devonport I'll give you a wave!

Hi Nath,
Today I saw only few bikes and no waves, so I guess did not see you
8 days in Tasmania went too fast. If you want to do some hiking, you should stay around 2 weeks.

True for any place. Even if you 'see it all', given the passage of time there will be new stuff to see.

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.
