My wife is watching so I better behave.
Anyway, yes it is a small world.
I was at Quarrydale school in Sutton, we used to thrash Joseph Whittaker at football, or so I remember, mind you I don't remember us ever losing a game, I must have blanked it out.
A mate bought an MZ from there but it fell apart after a couple of weeks and took it back so he went to Taggs in Sutton. I used to go to Richardsons in Mansfield until the old man died or left, can't remember which, many years ago.

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.
