And the same to you. To a few, and that's me. Christmas is just another day. OAP lives on my own. Have a friend round over the week at this time of the year. The time of spending money I don't have is well gone. Total cost, Six Christmas card's, Three of them hand delivered. I have Sherry and Port left over from last year. Total cost a few pound's. They woun't make money out of me. After saying that. My lady friend has told me we are going shopping in the morning. What for I have no idea.

Greetings to you Jax as well. There are probably a fair number of us on our own at this time of year, so I`ll raise a glass to everyone and wish you all the best for travels to come in 2015.

New to Horizons Unlimited?

New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!

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.
