UK 2 timbuktu and back late June 08

Hi,

I have been planning a trip to timbuktu and back starting in late June 08,

Unfortunately my other team member has just had to pull out.

So basically I am looking for another team member to take his place or another group or vehicle to ride with.

We had allowed 4-5 weeks to do the journey, so rather intensive driving on some days.

I plan to use budget accommodation and camping.

Interested persons must be able to and willing to do some of the driving.

Visit : www.2timbuktuandback.com for more information

Or contact me on ming125@hotmail.com

Regards Matt.

I'm leaving Holland to go to Nigeria via Timbuktu. I'll start my trip on the 9th of June. Planning to be back in Holland 8 weeks later. That's the best I can do for you...

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.
