Slowed Down

Thanks and safe travels. I went down in desert of New Mex and have an ankle injury - in a walking boot for 4 weeks. Plan on staying in New Mexico til after first of year to heal up in a cool town called Truth or Consequences - great spot to chill. Now heading for mex early January. Safe Travels to all traveling and all who read this. I went down going 10 MPH didn't see transition to sand. For other travelers anyone heading south of border from US after first of year post away.

Not sure if we can hook up some riding or not, but my bike is patiently awaiting my return to Los Angeles on the 8th of Feb...to ride Baja and then south to Ushuaia. I'm on a bmw g650x and just rode the CDR from bottom to Banff in July/Aug this year. Been thinking to ship bike and me to Colombia, but might be less expensive (and more hassles) to just ride straight to Panama and jump the gap?

Feel free to PM me if any of this sounds worth chatting about...I will have about 3months after Baja and of course the weather will be changing in the southern latitudes (i should know, I'm a kiwi)

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.
