Good luck and please let us know if the pricing quoted is all you had to pay or there were various other bits charged for or not paid for along the way that ramped it up.

I've spent 9 months in China before and it's an interesting place - have fun!

Best of luck

Hey Nessies!

Best of luck with the next step of the adventure. I for one will be reading your blog with an added interest. And hopefully booking up my China adventure too!

Keep us updated on the HUBB as well as the website when you get a chance to rest, as I'm sure I'm not the only person with a personal interest.

Hopefully see you guys when you are back in blighty.

Tara

Hello R&D,

As you know, I cannot read your site. :-(
I am able to find the China Diary page, but cannot find any info on the drive into China?

Anybody, who can see their site in full, care to post a link?

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.

Susan and Grant Johnson 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.
