Anyone Interested in a Winter Meeting ?

Hi
Just posting to see if anyone would be interested in a Winter meeting ?

The site would be in the Yorkshire Dales

Maybe December or January

if enough interest we will start making plans .

The weekend would offer some trail riding for those who would like to get off road, also a Road ride taking in the best Back road's in the area.

Put me down for this please Dazzer, though I may be heading south again for the winter (and might not be able to make next month, but I'll let you know).
Hope the weather's kind for the week-end.

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.
