Cairo
Hello everyone. I am currently in Cairo whilst I wait for my Sudan visa. I'll probably be here for the next 10 days and then head for the Aswan ferry on the 18th October ish..
So, is anybody about? It would be good to meet some fellow overlanders for a tea or  ..
Let us know!
James!

Hello, no I haven't got them. I didn't think it would be that busy from what i've read elsewhere, but I wouldn't want to miss another week so if you can supply I would be very grateful. Cheers Ted, Look out for my F650 a week monday then on the ferry! What are you riding..? And what fuel are you using? I notice 95ron is difficult to find...
Keep us informed if you can with any updates! Thanks
James

His email is: takourny(at)gmail.com
Email him NOW and book it as it fills up quick... We are booked on for the 18th (six bikes)
Were on a DRZ400, Dr650, 600 Transalp and we're running 90/92 with no problems.
You can buy octane booster in most of the petrol stations too if you're worried.

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.
