A silly question I know, but if you are riding solo, why are you looking for a riding buddy, that defeats the purpose surely:?

Hi Chris

I am stuck in Oz and will be here working to save up for the next leg, which is UK to Singapore, so I won't make Africa next year, or the year after.

Speedy recovery, at least I am not the only one that comes a cropper eh

Cheers
Richard

Around the Block
6 dirt bikers will be doing Cuzco - Colca - Camana - Nazca - Cerro Azul (almost Lima) then turning up the Yauyos valley to Huancayo and going all the way to Chachapoyas in the north via the interior. Leaving Cuzco end of June. Sounds like it matches any of your dates??

Hey joej90. I'm likely to have a similar schedule/basic route. Still in the early stages of planing but we should stay in touch.

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.
