According to the agent that organises my visas you have to go to the russian embassy, sit on their doorstep until they let you in and then wait until they call you forward. They close at 12 and if your next in line, tough, come back tomorrow. They aren't very welcoming!!
It costs a bit more to use an agent but saves a whole lot of aggro

That would be Darr Darr Darr (you need to repeat it - infrequnetly heard so repation is good) or Niet (frequently heard and expected, so only need to say it once).
Probably depends on where you re and what nationality you are. Ring the nearest embassy, how knows you might get the presently correct answer?

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.
