Thanks Amigos

Just back, had a real good time, will post further when I get some zzz in. Learned all the German you need to know, ever. Rene is a good teacher, thanks mate.

Lesson 1 = 'Pils'
Lesson 2 = 'Prost'

That's it, repeat as often as necessary.


Thanks Jens

More to follow.......

Thumbs up Los Amigos - my ride

I've finally got around to writing up the account of my 2000km ride to the Los Amigos Event and the of the new friends I made there

It's a bit wordy, but I just can't help myself, and there are some pictures too.

Most enjoyable pre AWT outing to test out bike and gear.

It's on my blog, here = http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/tstories/fairless/

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.
