Matt what a great Idea maybe GRANT could open up a map loan swap page where we could borrow maps etc off each other. I have a selection of maps which I will re-use but do not need all the time - How about it grant ! Horizons swop shop ! Loan listing.

Hi John,
Map is winging it's way to you in France(actually as it's going cheapo post it's probably at the bottom of a pile in a sorting office and will get to you 3 days after you get back), hopefully it will get to you soon.
Matt

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.
