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.

So true!

All three sources are very helpful - blogs, commumitys like hubb, expo, advriders and FB

I'll say aye with a small "a".

I was dormant for quite a while, but now that "have bike, will travel" applies once more, I'm in the mood to read and learn, follow others' adventures and dream of my own, even if my chances of a lengthy trip are slim any time before my two become undergrads....

Good grief. I'm a digital luddite: I didn't even know there was a FB page!

I tell you: this 19th century is full of surprises....

I come and go - sometimes gone for long periods of time, on again. Now I am on again - that is usually a sign that a new adventure is uncounsciously in the palnning. Before I know it I'm in the middle of nowhere.

So what's in the pipeline at the moment? Something post Covid I presume.

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

Susan and Grant Johnson Read more about Grant & Susan's story

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.
