Riding around the world! August 2020

Hi everyone!, my name is George.

I'm planning a trip around the world driving a BMW GS 1200 and while I enjoy traveling solo, I think company would be great. I want to start in Colombia which is where I'm working right now and then go south through Ecuador to Patagonia and go back north through the other side. Then move on to Central and North America. Nothing's set in stone yet and I'm open to suggestions. I'm Colombian so my mother language is Spanish (which might come in handy ) I'm into camping and all kinds of outdoor activites and I'm currently studying motorcycle mechanics and a few other things just for the trip. If you have any questions or maybe the same plans, please feel free to message me.

Have a nice ride!

Planning to start my ride from the Cartegena area in late Jan to early Feb. 2020. I would be interested in joining you until Peru from where I'll head towards Iquitos.

Demoes, are you shipping your bike to Cartengena from Canada? If so, can you share the details.

Thanks,

David

Hi there, your dates are a little early for me since I won't be leaving Medellín until August but you have me in the city in case you need anything. We can keep in touch to see if maybe we meet somewhere along the way too.

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.
