2.7 GEOS Search and Rescue Membership. Should you choose to purchase the optional Search and Rescue membership provided by GEOS (“GEOS SAR Membership”), such contract will be directly between you and GEOS. SPOT is not a party and in no way liable to you for any damages or claims that may arise in connection with such optional Search and Rescue service and is not responsible for GEOS’ performance of such service. The terms and conditions of the GEOS SAR Membership are located at GEOS | sar. The optional GEOS SAR Membership is billed on an annual basis, and is dedicated to the primary registered user. As further provided at GEOS | sar and subject to the terms set forth therein, the scope of GEOS SAR Membership includes payment, by GEOS, of up to $100,000 in any one year, limited to $50,000 for any one incident, for the provision of necessary additional Search and Rescue resources (including helicopter and private search teams etc.) up to the single incident limit for a period not exceeding 72 hours from the time of call for assistance, where these are requested by the appropriate rescue authorities, and which are necessary to prevent injury or illness or danger to human life as a result of an unforeseeable emergency or to pay for any costs and expenses claimed against you by the appropriate rescue authorities. Provision of additional resources under this service must be first authorized by GEOS.GEOS has contracted with a major insurance underwriter to underwrite this policy. This benefit does not apply in certain circumstances and is subject to other restrictions and limitations. Additional GEOS Memberships may be purchased directly from GEOS as further provided at http://www.geosalliance.com/sar_multiple_family.html. Corporate Search and Rescue memberships may also be purchased directly from GEOS if more than one employee seeks to use a unit, see pricing and terms and conditions at http://www.geosalliance.com/sar_mult...tml.Commercial users that are offering the SPOT for rent and/or lease may contact GEOS at questions@geosalliance.com to obtain information and pricing for provision of the Search and Rescue memberships to your customers. This membership benefit relates to the search and rescue related and/or extraction related costs and does not cover medical expenses. The GEOS SAR Membership search and rescue benefit is for any additional costs incurred or those costs not covered by existing medical or travel cover. Claims should be made direct through the GEOS Members web site, which can be accessed using the user name and password provided to you for access to the GEOS Members site. All claims are dealt with by the GEOS underwriters at Lloyds of London.NOTE: The IERCC will not refuse to call out additional emergency response services when advised by first responders that such additional services are necessary. In such cases where a member activates his or her SOS signal for an emergency and it later transpires that the additional rescue service was not required or covered by the terms and conditions of the GEOS SAR Membership, the member will be liable for the whole cost.

New to Horizons Unlimited?

New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
