Will Do

Hi Dom

Looks fantastic and it's in the diary.

"Watch mad bloke on tandem ride and push his way from the top of North America to the bottom of South America over two years, then turn off telly and go to the Red Lion!"

A good evening and looking forward to it.

Well done mate!

Cheers


Chris

Hi Dom

Hi Dom

That was brill and we had the whole family and a few mates watching, enjoying every moment, apart from the dump on the salt flats!!!

You had to dig deep to do it, but you did and you'll never be another bloke in the UK without a bike, you'll always stand out from the population with an adventure like that behind you.

Thought there would be a little more interest in what you did on this site! Oh well.

Cheers

Chris

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.
