Smile The Wind Seekers - Direction South

Hi wind seekers!

Here`s a forum thread we can use to put our ideas together for the bike trip to Central/South America! Let's use this to keep track of our discussions and plan our trip forward.

I think the first thing to talk about is what kind of trip you have in mind, when we would do it and for how long.

Cheers,

Rick

Thumbs up Here we are !


Rock on Rick! hi all!

For a moment, I tought to my self, this is one crazy Idea! I am still not sure how far i am going to go with this amazing set up.

Rick has been talking to me about this, giving me books, shoed me videos etcetc since many years it has been part of his high five hard on! We were still travelling the philippines back then. I am sure of one thing, Argentina has alwais been a dream for me.
It seams like i will ride it, instead of flying to it! ****in eh!

Hoping that I wont miss the pedal for that trip and that i will remain in this dream come true untill the end.....",!
Looking forward to cheers with you all

Junior Members? Underage for the Pub, eh?
Wind Seekers? Is that like "Truth Seekers"?
Maybe a wind turbine start up company? ... or on a sail boat?

Maybe best to trip plan in Planning forum below or start a ride report in Ride Tales?

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.
