I don't have the dates carved in stone just yet; but, since I have the next 2-3 years off to travel I will definatley be doing the Alaska - Argentina ride. I believe I will be headed to Alaska from Pennsylvania on or around May 27 ro 28 (anyone interested - we could meet where the Alaska Highway begins in Dawson Creek, in northeastern British Columbia). I ride a BMW R1150GS Adventure.
Let me know. -Michael- www.mikesworldtour.com

I hope you're all planning to get to the "Western USA, First Annual Meeting, Colorado, July 7-10, 2005"
(See the meetings link on left)
You'll learn a lot, and have a great time!
If you're not travelling fast, get to the "Copper Canyon, Creel, Mexico, MID-week - Oct 11 - 14, 2005" meeting.
Have a great trip, and think about doing a multi-person blog on HU - see Travellers Stories link on left for details on getting a blog.

You bet!!! The CO meeting is marked on my calendar since Chris sent me the dates.
Unfortunately, I will miss Copper Canyon 'cause I will have to be out of the US by mid-August (visa issue).
Merci pour tout,
Anne

Hello everybody!
Would it be possible for someone to e mail me an itinerary of your trip?As I have said before,it is a trip I would like to make but due to work commitments I don't know when I will be able to arrive in AK.Ultimately I'd like to do the full trip but it looks like you will be leaving perhaps a month or so before me.It sounds like there are quite a number of you now and it would be great to join you.If it is at all possible I shall try and work in with your plans,if that is okay.At the very least I shall try tomeet some of somewhere.Fingers crossed.Take Care,and look forwaed to receiving an itinerary.
Best wishes,Rob

Hi Anne...
I read your tread and it seems that I'll be departing a few weeks later than you and your group, but I'll be following (at least initially) part of the same route.
I plan to depart going up to Alaska by early August, crossing the US-Mexico border (on the way back) by early September trying to reach Panama around mid October. From there plan to fly to Venezuela then south to Manaus then(by boat)to Porto Velho entering southern Peru, then Bolivia and finally reaching Argentina by the end of December.
So include me in your mailing list to be in touch and I might be catching up with some of you guys somewhere down the road.
Fabio

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.
