I have unfortunately left Budapest without my loyal DRZ but thankfully due to the exposure I received, Honda Hungary offered to loan me a bike to continue to London. So I will cross the finish line there in about two weeks to end the trip.
I still hope to eventually get my bike back, not because it's particularly special or expensive (it isn't), but because it's mine and we've been through a lot together.
The offers for help I've received from the community have been overwhelming, and I can't thank everyone enough. I really appreciate that people have offered to start a bike fund too, but there are plenty more charities more deserving than me! All the same, it means alot.
I'm heading to the Germany Autmn HUBB tomorrow so hopefully I will get to see some of you there, and if not, thanks again and happy riding!

I'm with you, mate, I really hope that this bad story will have a happy ending.
But I see you are strong and determined and this is great, if that happened to me I would have taken the first plane and got back home with much anger that would be of no use...

Still no news. I suspect it's long gone by this point.
However, I did finish my trip in London in November using Hondas loan NC750X.
I'm backpacking around the EU now sans bike, but i'll be in the market for a new one when I get back home for the next adventure.

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.
