hello,
for iran visa, there's good info on lonely planet
they say it can be so easy or so hard to get
it depends on embassies and nationalities
it's hard and expensive here in france
if you don't succeed, you can get a 5-10 days transit visa
pakistan is easy and cheap here in france but can not do it now (you have to enter the country max 3 months once the visa is made)
have fun in iran, i won't be with you, i plan to be in iran in october
maybe, we'll meet later on the way, i go to india, se asia, oz, nz, americas after
have fun, good trip, safe travels

Hi Vincent!
FYI Goose and Lucy, Spud and I arrived in Bangkok yesterday. We did India and Nepal seperatly and then met up in Kathmandu to fly our bikes here, not being able to get around the Burma visa issue. I'll put up a recommendation for freighting agent. I'm planning to do Laos, Cambodia next. Let us know how you fare and whether we can help in any way.
Regards
George

I intend to start roughly in August 2003 for the old track Europe to India, which I wanted to do already in 1971, but never had the chance and the money. I know India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Turkey and most countries of SE-Asia as well as Australia and NZ, but only the last two on motorcycle.
Who wants to join me? My motorbike will be my old Honda 600 XLM, very, very reliable or my Moto Guzzi Quota 1000.
I speak German, French, Italian, English, Spanish, Portuguese, some Malay / Indonesian, a little Russian, Urdu, Hindi. 30 years of bike experience, most in Europe, some in South America.

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.
