Highland Mini Meet 2013

Hi Folks

Angus and I have had a few PM.s regarding this years mini meet in Cannich. We now have our corner of the campsite reserved for another year Friday 17th and Saturday 18th May. Same format as previous years - a ride out on the Saturday and two nights in the pub - what could be better ! Look forward to seeing old friends and some new faces - roll on the spring!

Hi Chizz, another date I can't manage 'cos I'm trapped in the wilds of the Americas; however, I will be back in Scotland from mid June to mid October so if you can organise a meet between those dates, this time I should manage it with my moto. Ride safe.

Its between my weekends off so as usual I will be there on the Saturday evening, in time for the pub :-).
My weekend off is the bank holiday so we may be up Dornoch way that weekend.
We have holidays for the HUBB Donnington so it looks like a busy May for us.

See you all in May.

Celebrity plonker... Nothing else.

Knowing me, I'll be writing that presentation in my tent on Thursday night at Donnington.

Bit difficult to get away during the summer for me, but if I can get down there, even for an evening, which pub do you use?

Would love to come but still waiting on Surgery on my spine before I can ride again (if it all goes well ) if the surgery comes through in time I will beg borrow or buy a bike and come along but its all beyond my control at the moment - in any case I know it will be a great weekend. If i ain't there i will be thinking of you all. Cheers Jake.

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.
