Hmm, just want to sell my phone... The one James has put in above. Added second hand and took away the website. Sorry, yes maybe should read up on this first, didn't think it would be a problem to add some info on the phone but can see in retrospect it might look like I'm selling phones in general, which I am not. Well, if I need to remove it all, pls let me know, unless I'm banned already as you wish for - then I assume it will all disappear....

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.
