Hot along the US/Mexico border
It has been warming up quite a bit the last few days, with the temps expected to stay warm for a while here. Anyone planning to cross into or out of Mexico from/to the US, be aware of the temps (approached 95 F today).

That was true 3 weeks ago in Texas also , but today you'd better have some pretty heavy duty clothing with you. It actually snowed in central Texas yesterday .
I noticed most of the AZ temps today range from the 50s to the 70s.
Ain't April wonderful!

Yes, April is interesting here. It was extremely windy last night, causing several accidents (actually, it was the sand affecting visibility), and today is cooler. No snow, however!

Its hot again here in Yuma, AZ for those planning to cross at Algondones or San Luis into/out of Mexico. Its hot eastward, though I am not sure how far east, but anywhere in AZ the temps are rising!

Using the advice the Mexican government gives to its citizens taking a long walk through the harsh deserts into the US--bring and drink alot of water here.
Sounds like its more brutal in Nor Cal with all of that humidity to go along with the temps!

"The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco."
You knew someone would say that.

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.
