Hi Joe
Thank you for your wish for my trip. I think I am going to west for I 40 from Memphis to Gran Canion National Park, then California and the Pacific Shore. The round back trip to Miami I don´t know the route, maybe Colorado. I don´t like big citys, alway villages. Cheers..

Heading the other way
Hi
Sounds like a good trip - I am heading the opposite direction - leaving Las Vegas (sounds like a good movie title ?) Thursday, heading the the River Run in Laughlin for the weekend then heading vaguely East. Keep us informed on your progress - I thought my English was OK but having problems being understood in California - maybe the kiwi accent ?

Hola
Do you write your adventure on the web? I think is okey to have first hand information over places, campings, routes, and friend-motorcycles hotels. Where you sleeped in Las Vegas, how much? Thank you

Hola from Missouri
Raul
If you intend to travel through Missouri, let me know. I would like to repay a bit of the hospitality I was given in Salta on my trip in 2008.
Si usted se prepone viajar a través de Missouri, déjeme saben. Quisiera compensar un pedacito de la hospitalidad que me dieron en Salta en mi viaje en 2008.
Please note: I didn't speak must Spanish on my trip but I use the internet web-site Yahoo! Babel Fish - Text Translation and Web Page Translation to help with translations.
My web journal from 2006 and 2008 is
Bob's Latin America Adventure
Have a great trip
Bob

I'll be crossing the states during that time, as well.
Doing the USA 4 Corners Tour, from San Ysidro, CA to Blaine, WA to Key West, FFL to Madawaska, ME. Then 3,000 miles back home across the country.
Maybe I'll see you along the way!

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.
