Hello Hubb, Single to Sarajevo
Hello Hubb, My fondest greetings to you all.
I have been a silent reader of the hubb for so long now, but as I am 3 and a half weeks to go before I leave, I really ought say hello at least.
My name is Dave, I am from Shropshire UK and will be taking my Pegaso 650 Trail accross Europe to Sarajevo and back over the course of a month. It will be a lightweight and cheap trip, hopefully involving a bit of off road too.
I turned 40 this year and this is my birthday treat. I want to go around Europe and see as many of the things in it that I have always wanted to see.
I will hopefully be doing a blog too.
Happy trails
Dave

Good luck with your trip Dave, I did Sarajevo a couple of years ago, albeit by car....I had a blast as I'm sure you will!

Thanks for that, the Balkans do sound very intersting, a little less Europe within the presence of Europe, Sarajevo, especially. It will all be a lot of fun as long as Betty, my bike is happy to go. (she is a bit tempramental!)... A bigger boy said that and then ran off.....
cheers
Dave

Dave,
Not sure what route your doing but the Black Forest and around Fussen are beautiful areas.....Florence, although a little out of your direct route is one of my favourite cities. The Croatian coastline is stunning.......so many places. Have a great trip.

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.
