Couple from Poland getting ready for a dream journey to the USA
Hello fellow Riders, w're a Polish couple, who loves exploring the world by motorbike. We've been mostly riding across Europe so far and we blog about it in English on LifeWeLove.com - if you look for some inspiring routes in Europe, feel free to check it out!
This year we want to make our big dream come true and are preparing for the longest journey we have ever undertaken. The goal is to ride around Americas, starting in NY. We will be glad for any advices, e.g. regarding some bikers-friendly places. We will be travelling with a tent, so some recommended campings will be an interesting option for us too. It would be great to get in touch with some friendly people on the way and get some support from you in case we need it.
Best,
Joki and Livia

Hi,
The 'hubb' is fairly international so you will find some Americans here .. but there are many more American riders over on Americas | Adventure Rider that will help with your travels there.
Are you going to ship you bike over ... or buy one there? Might be cheapest to buy there and sell at the end of the trip.

Thanks Warin,
We are going to ship our bike to New York. I spent too much time for customizing and tuning it for a trip, so it would be hard to sell it

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.
