Panama - Equador: Nov 25 - Dec 7
Looking for travellers going North to South on the Panamerican to make the trip from somewhere in Panama to Quitto, Equador in the last week of November, first week of December.
Currently we are a party of three: one KTM 625 and two small Honda 50's. It would be nice to meet up with some more travellers to make the trip together. Boat or plane.
Also if you have crossed from Panama recently and you have good information please let us know!

Hiya,
You wouldn't be travelling with el alemano Rassmus (KTM) would you? Tell him I said hi. We met when I ran out of gas right outside of Prudo Bay last June.
I do wonder what he is doing with two honda 50s? no offense or anything.... but he is pretty keen on his KTM if you haven't noticed. Anyway if you end up on the Venezuela side of the continent, stop in for rest. Rassmus has my email.
Enjoy!
Susan

Hey there Susan,
Indeed we are and we have experienced Raz´s love for the bike from day one. He even wants to be buried with it! Crazy German.
Thanks for the invite. For now it looks as if we are going straight to Quitto, but if plans change we will be in touch.
You can check out our adventures with Raz and the little Honda´s on www.honda50.cc The site will be updated over the coming days.
Happy riding,
Dirk

Thanks for the reply. Great website. It looks like you are having too much fun on those bikes of yours and now I understand why el alemano has joined you.
Enjoy!

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.
