Smile UK to Turkey 12-14th May Departure

Hi There! Looking to depart from the UK to Turkey around the 12th – 14th May taking 6-8 days to get to southern Turkey a place call Olu-Deniz. Wanted to do the trip very cheap accommodation or camp on route, will have sleeping bag, cooking Eqp and tent. Flexible route hope to stop in Istanbul on route. Meeting my wife who’s flying out and staying in her hotel once i get there for about 3 weeks then riding over to Spain.
Looking at anyone who wants to tag along as I’m all by myself at the moment! Don’t mind following others etc.

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.
