Thanks to Grant and Susan
I'm sure I'm not alone in wishing both Grant and Susan best wishes for the New Year, and thank them for the work which they put into this site.
I for one gain a lot of useful information from all the threads on here.

Totally agree, the site has sooooo much useful information, and the annual UK meeting is the most important biking event in the year for me. Many thanks to Grant and Susan.

May I add my best wishes to them both and all other contributors to the HUBB -

I'd also like to add holiday greetings to Grant and Susan, wishing you a merry christmas and a happy new year.
Over the years you have managed to put together an invaluable source for motorcycle travellers... even for people like me, currently dreaming and planning the first trip!
All the best,

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.
