Hi from London, UK
Hi everybody,
Another Noob to the forum from London, UK. Hope to meet some fellow riders some time. I've got a '07 GSA and I'm loving it!

Welcome to the HUBB! Perhaps you could tell us about yourself, how long you've been riding, what long rides or tours you've done, tours you're planning, etc.
(Feels kinda weird me being the greeter and prompter, but I guess it's one of those things).

Nothing special really. I've been riding for 22 years. One or twice a year I go for a little touring for a couple of weeks in Europe. I've been 25 countries so far. Apart from that I ride as much as I can here in UK.

New to Horizons Unlimited?
New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!
Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.
Read more about Grant & Susan's story
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.
