Ushuaia Meetup - Christmas 2008
I'm reading several threads of HU members riding in South America this year. Several have stated they hope to be in Ushuaia for Christmas. This is our goal as well.
Is there any interest in planning a meetup for Ushuaia for Christmas 2008? I don't want to confuse this with a full blown Horizons Unlimited Motorcycle Travellers Meeting and this is why I'm using the term "meetup". We'll be on the road so it will be difficult to plan activities, etc. but it would be great for like minded adventurers to meetup, share stories and have a Christmas Party together. It would also give us something to shoot for. BTW, there is a planned HU Meeting for Viedma, Argentina sometime in December. I haven't seen the dates for this organized HU Meeting. By way of introduction, we are a couple who will be riding 2-up on a R12GSA from Canada starting in September 2008. Robert Last edited by BMWRC; 15 Dec 2008 at 02:34. Reason: updating the thread to count number of ppl in Ushuaia for Christmas

Wow... this is really growing
In less than 2 days we have several different people announcing plans to be in the 'Land of Fire' at the world's southernmost city for Christmas. This is great.
PS... I read somewhere that Ushuaia has it's own micro-brewery! Yoo Hoo! Last edited by BMWRC; 7 May 2008 at 22:23.

Two friends of mine (from France on R80GS) and my self (from Luxembourg on Yam Super-Ténéré) are planning a trip from Valpo to Ushuaia starting mid December. On xmas we are still on the way, but on New Years Eve we will be in Ushuaia.

Bah Humbug
Put me down as a 'maybe'. Should be in Viedma for the December meet, and I'll decide then. Gotta ride the Carraterra Austral before they pave it, but Christmas camping in Ushuaia's windy desolation never really appealed - especially with tropical beaches and honking cities in range.
Will be good to finally share an overseas , Simon...Suerte, Dan
