Oh dear, Derek, you did get home safely, shame about your spanner. Moral of tale- don't lend them to cack handed girls!

Sunday started off a bit nippy



so I took a wander round Hardraw waiting for the roads to thaw out a bit and nabbing a few pics. Its a lovely wee village
















Basil was rounding up the troops for a last trail ride



Wonder who he was shouting at...........


















Come on Tesco.......nice to meet you Dave





Martin and Kito packed up and we soon all headed our merry ways, only to meet again at the petrol station in Hawes...



I have to thank Iain and Debz for the directions to Tan Hill. It was a bit hairy getting up there but well worth the risk.






A great week end marred only by one little piece of fan mail (so far) from Cumbria feds. Three points or a speed awareness course......... mmmmm

About 40 riders on the attendance list in the early postings in this thread.

A lot has changed in the intervening 6 years.

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.

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.
