TV

Seems really great , I follow few guys doing a trip on quad accross Africa , this could become the 4X4 cheap option of the one wanting a bit more safety than a 2 wheel while of roading .

Thanks Hendi, But i cant agree on the safety. We averaged 80-90km/h through the desert and we used vehicles with a short fuel range. Also finding spare parts in most countries is completly out of question. Those were the challenges that made us choose ATV:s instead of motorcycles and cars.

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.
