I'm not sure yet, but one of my plans is to travel Baltic States this year. Maybe we meet somewhere on the road.

I might be heading that way in about that time, but I'm not sure of my plans yet. It all depends on insurance and money - as usual.

Keep this thread updated with your plans and maybe we can meet up for a while.

Take your day off in Klaipeda, there is much more to see there, visit Palanga or Nida. You can take scenic route along river Nemunas from Kaunas to Klaipeda.

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.
