After the big trip They came, went... and did it! But where are they now? DID that big trip change their lives? What to do with all the travel experience and how to use it? How to get a job afterwards! Was the trip the best - or worst - thing you ever did?

Hi,

To my knowledge the most comprehensive listing of trips is on our links pages under Travellers Tales.

Also see the Travellers Stories listing of blogs - over 300 - here on HU.

hope that helps!

XTZ 750 super tenere

I owned one, fantastic bike, a little top heavy in the mud, but enough power to pull stumps!
great long distance tarmac and dirt or forest roads on Trailwings, not too great in wet mud.

for an RTW, would make a good bike but with luggage and stuff it gonna be a heavy bike.

Ro Quest Expedition - Travel journal

(btw: in 2009 two journalists from polish radio made RTW on new XT660Z)

I try to collect all of long trips and RTW on XTZ750 to write the story on XTZclub.pl

Just for fun

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.
