I will be leaving Portugal around mid-April to ride to Magadan via the stans (not first time) and then ride to Vlad. Most of my riding will be offroad if this suits anyone LMK

Hi Brian.
Mongolia would be my preferred destination.
Ted is in the same general area as me, Liverpool area.

I would feel easier in a group of 3 or more riders so I’ll be keeping an eye on this thread and hopefully timetables and the stars align.. cheers Phil
I am getting all excited !

When I say "I am planning to ride solo", that is not a choice, it's more the case that I am going.... I have obsessed about this ride for a decade and I am hoping I will meet others along the way and tackle to tougher sections together. Yep, the road of bones is intimidating and I am certainly hoping to ride that section with company. Otherwise I may need to change my plans and head for Vladivostok. But that would be sad.

My email address is bfgraydon@gmail.com if anyone is interested in corresponding between now and May 2020.

Touring Ted - keep in touch if 2019 fall over.

Brian - I'll drop you an email.

Tomkat - if our calendars align, we could meet somewhere in the Russia or the Stans. Flick me an email if you like.

Simo: I am in Brisbane, let's stay in touch in case you can join me.

Beginning to think it could all come together in 2020.
Warrington to Ulan Bator looks about 45 days riding?
Please correct if I am way out wrong.

Graham

I am planning to ride solo, but welcome company if anyone has plans around that time in any of those areas.

Let me know if you are keen.

Hi Bruce,

I'm leaving April 2020 riding from the UK to Mongolia and back and will be on much of the same route as you so perhaps we'll cross paths?
Happy to ride some/all the way to Mongolia with you.

My info is on my blog, details in sig below.

Mike.

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.
