Fritz reckon your right - sheila on the right is the one to blame she not arf kicked back that night and in such a small tent something had to go. Shirley(left) was most put out that I wasn't up to finishing the job if you remember she head butted and tipped me bike over when she left the tent that morning.
Mind you I look like I might be getting up to something - in anticipation - that's before we got in the tent.
Your a one to watch when you have that camera in hand.

Still on for this !
Angus and i still planning down - weather permitting - coldest january in Scotland since records began apparently !. (luckily for me I spent two weeks of it in Africa!)

Just started some research on best heated clothing - will have to choose between heated jacket or new sleeping bag. - advice on either much appreciated.

Anyone else coming down from Scotland? - We plan to leave at first light and will be in Edinburgh area for lunchtime/early afternoon.

Sorry to hear about your back Jake - it will be a shame if you cant make it after all the effort you have made in arranging this.

Brekkie
Not long until Cropton now folks so can those who will be having the delicious cooked brekkie give me an 'aye' and whether you'd like it Saturday, Sunday or both? I need to let them know numbers.

Cheers

Hi Debz

I'll have a breakfast on the Sunday please.

I'll pass on the Saturday one - in the hope that I will be getting my daily 'wholesome' quota at the lunch/tea stop on the ride out!

Debs

I am only staying over on the Saturday night, and possibly won't make the rideout on Saturday

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.
