"TÉNÉRÉ LEGEND" international meeting 2008

Ready at last: 25 years of wanderlust, 25 years of distant places, 25 years of adventure,
25 years TÉNÉRÉ! Congratulations!

What bounds up all motor bikes called TÉNÉRÉ with its drivers? It is the many adventures that
we were allowed to experience, that we were told and that we could observe in the press.

TÉNÉRÉ stands for adventure! It challenges us to travel to distant places, cultures, uphill,
downhill, on bendy roads, on gravel and asphalt.

We – TÉNÉRÉ bigots and not a company – invite you to be in on the 25th Birthday
of the TÉNÉRÉ which we will celebrate from the 30th of May to the 1st of June 2008
in MOTHERN FRANCE. We gave our best shot to make it a big occasion!

Be in when there are original rally TÉNÉRÉs and drivers to marvel at.
Get mesmerized by driving during a training on a self-groomed racing track.
There will be experienced drivers as instructors on site.

Get familiar with the country of Stéphane Peterhansel.
We have prepared maps for you so that you can explore the countrysite
with your TÉNÉRÉs by yourself.

Meet like-minded people from all over the world and swap ideas.
We have invited all popular TÉNÉRÉ clubs known to us, former rally TÉNÉRÉ
drivers and motor bike travellers.

Barter or sell spare parts on the flea market. Get freebies from sponsors.
Your mobility is guaranteed by a repair and assembling shop with spare parts.

The moto-cross area in Mothern (France) is waiting for you!
You will also find a campground with sanitation. Furthermore,
you will be regaled by the “Club Motor-Cross Mothern”.

Detailed information can be found on our constantly growing website:
tenerelegend.com


IMPORTANT:
You will need a „international motor insurance card” for driving onsite.
You are not allowed to drive on blocked roads in the vicinity,
otherwise you will be excluded from the event.
The French traffic regulations apply (Code de la rout francais) onsite.
Open fire is not permitted, especially on the campground.
The instruction of the personal is to be followed.
Arrival and departure is on the visitors own risk.
The organizer reserves the right to change the course and arrangement
of the event.

XT Girls Had Fun!

Guys!!

We just HAD to come back and congratulate the organisers on a FANTASTIC event... and ofcourse, let everyone from the UK know what they missed!!!

Apart from coming back from the event, completely educated and deeply soaked in Tenere culture... we had looooaaads of fun.

Not to mention, that some of the guys, actually let us ride their bikes... now THAT is brave!!

I've done a quick write-up (XT Girls style... be warned, its tongue-in-cheek, so don't get all serious about it!) and will be posting our videos and pictures soon.

Click on the thumbnail, to take you to the write-up.

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.
