The HUBB PUB Chat forum - no useful content required!

BUT the basic rules of polite and civil conduct which everyone agreed to when signing up for the HUBB, will still apply, though moderation will be a LITTLE looser than elsewhere on the HUBB.

Is Stromtrooper male or female?



Any good for you, or don't you like KTMs?

My father actually pulled off this scenario and it lasted until his death last month. He was a District 37 racer in the 70's and went to the desert every weekend without missing one week end per year. One day while out there, he met Patty my step Mother. She also was an accomplished desert racer (Husky) so my father had the perfect riding partner. Up until 2 month before his death in July 2012, they were riding the back roads of Utah and mountain biking about the place.

That's my story.

Yes, I wondered whether anyone would notice. A very sad state of affairs, init? Good thing I'm not here looking to get hooked up. And if I'd waited for "the right one" before departing in search of laughs and adventures, I'd probably still be waiting.

We're here for you, Mike. Go ahead: let it out.

BTW, looks like I'll be seeing you on The Island Whose Name Shall Not Be Mentioned next winter. Ride safe and be prepared to accept the first (or rum), courtesy of me.

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.
