Iain's in Hospital
Hi All, I just wanted to let you guys know that Iain is in hospital. He's been operated on for a badly ruptured and infected appendix. Not fun at all.
He'll certainly be on a ward for a few more days at least and then there's going to be a significant recovery period. However, Iain being Iain, he's already doing work on the HUBB UK from his hospital bed - in a limited fashion mind!
Anyway, thoughts with him and Robyn. Get well soon mate.

Looks like a very sudden 'adventure'.
Hope you're in good hands Iain and soon back on two feet and two wheels. 
All the best....

Great news...!
Hope you make a speedy recovery Iain.
I was hoping to catch up with you at the Ace on Sunday, couldn't believe it when Sam told me what had happened.
Take it easy and good luck with Donnington. Sadly, Nik & I can't make it as were off to Europe and beyond on our new bike.
Yes, it's a V-strom..
All the best,
Gus and Nikcki.

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.
