Clingons

+1 on the Clingons. I saw these a while back over at RV Ops. Never used them but they look pretty useful if your into the tarp system.

old but good !

Hi guys and girls
I write here because it is the case .
I own a D4 3*3 with now 4 more anchor points ( that makes 14 because there are 4 on the central line ) ; front 2*2, sides 3*2, .
I bought it cheap for testing "before" the DD stuff which is quite expensive here ( in this case the DD Tarp S
SPECS:
Size: 2.8m x 1.5m
Colour: Olive Green, Coyote Brown
Weight: 450g (excl. Pegs & Guy Lines)
Includes: 4 x Pegs & Guy Lines, Stuff Sack
which is terrible for hiking and trekking alone , costs about 50 euros .
My goal for the moment is to be able to bluid a decent half tipi or half pyramid ?
for both riding and hiking .
Do you think it enough
PS for the A frame or classical i can manage these

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
