Viedma Travellers Meeting seeking buddy
Is someone interested in going to Viedma, Argentina from Santiago, Chile riding one of my Yamaha Super Tenere XTZ750 bikes while I ride the other? Will have to pay my expenses (fuel, lodging and food) plus a small daily amount to cover bike wear. Have plenty of time and would continue to Ushuaia. Cheers,
Roberto

Hi Alec: Since the meeting is December 16 thru 18 and elections day in Chile is the 11th, I was planning to depart Santiago wednesday 14 with a first stop near Mendoza, Argentina and next day to Viedma with probably a night in Neuquen. It all depends on travel circumstances. Please tell me with sufficient time which are your plans and if this time schedule is convenient.
Cheers,
Roberto 'Thomraider'

Only USD 60 per day. Covers oil filter change, tire, chain and sprockets wear. Not covered are damages caused by falls or accidents. It is a gentlemen agreement because there is no insurance involved (no motorcycle insurance in Chile... so no one rents bikes). Regards, Roberto

Does the $60 cover everything? The bike and your services?

The USD$60 cover the lended bike wear (sprockets, chain, tires, oil, filter, etc) and my services, as personal guide, are covered by paying my expenses riding on my bike (fuel, food and lodging/camping). Not covered are damages by accidents and of course your personal expenses. Hope this clears your doubts as much as possible.
Cheers,
Roberto 'Thomraider'

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.
