HU Slogan contest!
Years ago we had a great slogan contest, but we've now used them all up!
So, it's time for a new slogan contest! 
Winners get a free HU Tshirt (cotton from CafePress) and an HU Mug or similar, with their slogan on it!
Here's the slogans we've already used:
Ride your world
Share the Dream!
Just riding around... the world
If your mind wanders ... ride after it!
Wherever your mind wanders... ride after it!
7 continents - 2 wheels - 1 home: Horizons Unlimited - THE Motorcycle Travel site
One World - Two Wheels
We may not know where we are but we ain't lost
I don't know where I am, but I'm not lost!
I took the road less travelled - now where the hell am I?
Post your submission here, and the top bunch will go into a Poll for voting.
Time is limited - you have two weeks to make your submission! Then it goes to a vote for 10 days.
Good luck and thanks for your ideas and support!

Who needs reasons when you've got two wheels and a horizon

Grant, one question--how do you "use up" slogans--are they only intended for temporary use, or do you use different slogans for different purposes? Will try to think of something, but would like to understand how you use slogans...

We like to use a new one each year, so all the tshirts produced for the Meetings use the one new slogan. (The congnoscenti can figure out which years meeting you attended by the slogan  , even though we don't date them)
It adds a little variety, and an incentive to buy a new one each year  and for the fussy, sooner or later one will come up that you just have to have!
ALL slogans are still available on tshirts at the HU store via CafePress.
Hope that helps!

Next to Stephen's list I imagine the rest of us could just go home but here's one anyway:
"I think I would rather be crashing my bike in Kenya!"

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.
Read more about Grant & Susan's story
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.
