Hi Grant , I may have miss it somewhere in old post but maybe a map special thread will be great. we could all put our past present futur plan and get feeback or question from other.
we could use Google hearth or just scan and JPEG actual map.

Hi Hendi,
That's a great idea - and it's in production - we are working on it right now, but it's a slow process - volunteers hate getting whipped
So it's coming, and you'll love it, it's looking REALLY good.
In the meantime, please feel free to use the forum:
Route Planning (7 Viewing)
Where to go, when, what are the interesting places to see
Hope that works for you,
Grant

Thanks Grant ,
I already use the site so much that as it is now ,there are no better site for motorcycle traveller, I will be on my way to Cambodia in 5 days and then I will go spend few month in India.I have to admit that I travel arround the world for over 20 years and that internet is now making my life way easier, just have to try to settle with one bike now and that is like impossible to me.Still looking for a great bike: reliable /fairly light /easy to fix(not too much electronic)/good on and off road and ok some 2up riding (sometime), the more I buy new bike the more I regret older one .Currently own 4 bikes but still have room to get more.
See you on the road.

I'm one of the volunteers that Grant is whipping to get this task completed.. I'm just inundated with other stuff at the minute, and my ability to work on this has been seriously impacted. I'm hoping to be able to get back into it in the next few weeks, but I'm swamped until then! Apollo G'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.
