Seconded !! Vote for Bruiser !!
Lorraine, Bruiser & Dog have been staying with us for the last couple of weeks & having heard of their antics Bruiser would make an excellent Hubb pub dog

Why ? He's from distant lands (street wise Kenyan mutt), been on the road for years, and his mission in life consists of sampling exotic food, humping the locals and moving onto the next town before anything bad happens.

That's Dog on the left, she may want wine instead of Guiness, and Bruiser on the right, he'll work the door and keep the riff raff out. They are seen here chilling on the beach in Costa Rica.

Bruiser
Personally, I thought Bruiser would be good as a bouncer. The name fits. So I was looking for a picture of him showing his teeth. Then I came upon this shot.... Bruiser is the one with the local, and Dog is the voyeur.

I asked Dog, apparently she was horrified that Bruiser would do such a thing in front of her but she's still prepared to travel with him.

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.
