Hi Roberto,
this is amazing I just been on your homepage and really impressed. My plan is to do the hold trip all at once. I actually met a guy in Cambodia when I traveled South East Asia on a Dominator in 2011. His name is Giacomo from San Marino.
He started from Italy and his bike is parked in Malaysia in the moment. He is not sure when to carry on because he has to look after his mother in the moment. So to come to the Burma crossing and my adventure, when are you looking to travel? Do you have a time window for how long you can go? I will leave mid to end of Mai next year and ship from Brisbane to Malaysia and my plan is to spent time in Asia before I go west towards Europe. Did you consider to ship the bike to OZ and go the same way?
It would be great to ride together in certain parts, specially Burma, it's a 10 day trip across with guide for approx $1500 with accomodation and drop off on the Indian side. The plan is to cross Burma maybe in December or so which is suppose to be a good time with the weather etc. So what are your plans??
Looking forward to hear from you
Mario

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.
