Introduction
The idea of the Horizons Unlimited Motorcycle Travellers Community is
to enable motorcycle travellers, both those on the road and those at home,
to meet up with like minded people.
By joining the Community in their area, people at home that are willing
to help travellers on the road will receive e-mails on occasion from travellers
looking for information on the area, help to solve a problem, or a place
to stay and visit. They can choose to ignore the message, in the hope
that someone else in the area is willing and able to help, or can respond
directly to the request.
It works like this:
(I will use Brisbane, Australia, as an example):
I set up
as an e-mail address, and it automatically forwards to all the people
on the list in the local community. Whoever wishes to respond to it could
then do so, using
as the RETURN email address to start with, or their own if they wish.
This way, a "trouble" traveller could be easily ignored, and
the good ones easily contacted by all the locals. Also all local people
know what is going on and who is coming to stay with who, providing some
security.
The Community system also functions as a full, regular mailing list,
so people in your local Travellers Community can use it as a method of
keeping in touch with each other, planning rides, or just discussing anything
of interest to the local riders. It's also a great way of getting in touch
with riders in your area for the first time, as you may not know who else
in your area is interested in motorcycle travel!

If you don't receive a response they may be on the road,
or you have asked a question that is unclear, or simply too big! Keep
