Tour of USA july and August
I will be leaving Vermont and heading to Kentucky in mid July to go to a friends wedding. From there I will be heading west to oregon and then depending on time I will return to Vermont on a different route. Seeking people to join me for some or all of this ride. I will be riding a lot of dirt roads and some trails. Looks like I will be using a KTm 950 Adventure.

Hi Seth, I'm going to a wedding in upstate NY early July, then picking up a Honda CB750 in New Hampshire and heading to Colorado. Not sure about my time frame as yet but stay in touch- I would love company since this will be my first trip on this bike and first long-distance trip on any bike in the states.

Hi, my name is Grant and I live in DC. I was hoping to take a motorcycle trip out to Montana at some point this summer. If this sounds like something that could be worked into your plans I would love to accompany you on your trip. This would be my first extended trip. I ride a Kawasaki Vulcan 500.

Three of us are leaving North Carolina on July 14th heading to Yellowstone. We are on street bikes though and can't get off road much. Would still enjoy some company for at least part of the trip.

Hey,
i too wil be on the road in July and August. I am leaving southern New Mexico on the 7th or 8th of July and stopping in at the travellers meeting in Colorado. I am going to spend a few weeks in Minnesota. At the beginning of August I'm going through the Black Hills (sturgis) to yellowstone - missoula - washington, oregon, and california. (Along the coast of course)
I'm also flying to Hawaii for a week, have any of you ever left your motorcycle at an airport for that long? I ride an 94 dyna wide glide but I may be buying a used BMW F 650 GS. My first on/off road motorcycle! Either way I'm spending the summer on the road.
peace

Hi yall-
Looks like I will be leaving NH 17 July. Hopefully not too much later than that. I think I will go southwest thru NY, PA, OH, KY... I don't have a ton of time so I wanna take country roads, but not dirt roads. I have to be back in CO in the 1st week of August.
Hope to cross paths with one or more of you!
Kristin

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.
