In Peru tomorrow
I´m currently in Vilacabamba, Ecuador, crossing into Peru tomorrow (Fri, 10/31). I´ll be heading to Piura, then south. Had wanted to go through the mountains but it´s been raining for 2 weeks and I´ve heard the roads in Peru are a lot of mud. Where are you? Let´s see about meeting up.
Steve

In Quito now, meeting with Mike on Sunday, probably heading out Monday.
I had wanted to see what the mountains looked like as well, we'll see if they are passable when we get there.

Hi Guys
I am in Huaraz Peru at the moment with a few bike issues to sort out. I should be back on the road in a few days. The roads aroud here have been great fun but the rain in the last few days has made them a bit crazy.
Mail me if anyone is nearing this place or heading to Lima next week. I want to ride the Andean route here from Huaraz to Cusco, there are a few unpaved sections that I am waiting on road information from a local guy out here. Steve I sent you a mail earlier. Lets try & catch up if we can.
Cheers Mo.

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.
