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.

And, once and a while describe it to others.

thanks for asking. xfiltrate
Thanks for that. I agree with everything you say in these 6 lines.

chris you are a stalker. This makes you unpredictably dangerous.

Karl65 you are being stalked.
Be careful, you do not know the capabilities of people who do these things. It starts out as innocent fun for them but has the potential for so many negative meanderings. Some day you might come home and find him sleeping in your bed, with a hairstyle just like yours, wearing your clothes and passing himself off as 'Karl'. Please keep your bank account details very secure and don't talk to strangers until 'dangerous chris' has been captured and is receiving the appropriate physchological treatment.
He does not care about you.......read my stuff instead!

Follow me instead. Send me your address and I'll send you a signed postcard.
A signed postcard ehh. That's raised the stakes. I feel like I've just turned up at a gunfight and only brought my swiss army knife.

You're a right one, bringing up stalking and all. You're using my name!

In the picture you paint, I'm in Karl's bed. At this point, where is his wife? When I'm in his kitchen, have I eaten all his cookies?

This is all getting very weird now. I'm not the only one needing treatment

He may not have a wife. If he does and she was in the bed too then you're more dangerous than I thought.
There are no cookies left....I ate them when I was there before you

Just to confirm...

With every signed postcard comes a free sample my: 'Touring Ted's once in a lifetime offer; BMW branded Adventure lozenges'

In reality they are just re-braded Viagra and are designed especially to help the older, more conservative BMW rider 'Self relieve' himself whilst admiring their new GS from their tent porch.

Chris will testify to their effectiveness I'm sure.

He took one at the last Horizons meeting and was 'up' all night.

So the rumour has it.

TT, as usual your timing is impeccable. I just read your promo for "Touring Ted's once in a lifetime offer; BMW branded Adventure lozenges'

We are now offering Viagra Tours to Buenos Aires. Our cliental are mostly way.... on the north side of fifty, except the women who seem to be younger. Your "BMW branded Adventure lozenges" might be just what our cliental needs. Do you offer a similar product for women?
Do you wholesale your product(s)? Our Viagra Tours have become so popular we are now chartering jets. The Canadians are our best clients. Many of them have been legally visiting Cuba for years, and in general know the score. North Americans from Nevada get it quicker.

Ted, Perhaps we could create a joint venture?

Touring Ted, thanks for mentioning the ranch, as the French would say it is a zone de transit.

From what I have seen so far our clientel pays "more bucks for a bang." Nevertheless we hope and pray for meaningful relationships that give comfort in a cold hard world. The need for evasive love winding it's way through the hearts of each Hubber , sometimes rides the low road.

The check is in the mail, drop ship 144 cases of adventure loszenges to our ranch on Route 66.
Mil gracias Ted, you are supporting every member. In other words, you are supporting our members. Keep up the good work.

Ted, a wee word in your ear on the quiet.............

I had an accident when manufacturing those BMW branded Adventure lozenges for you. They are not viagra, they are rohipnol. Please be careful who you sell them to and please make sure they are aware of the differences between the two.

Apologies for the late response to the most recent witty replies. Been incommunicado after one of Ted's lozenges (or possibly Mr FS's mutant version? ). Yes an entire week! Wow.

Here's a pic of the "Down" after the "Up" that Ted describes.

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.
