BUT the basic rules of polite and civil conduct which everyone agreed to when signing up for the HUBB, will still apply, though moderation will be a LITTLE looser than elsewhere on the HUBB.

Up for a pint? - London

Hello,

My name's Nick and Im planning to ride from London to Singapore, starting either June next year or sometime in 2014. My friends dont share this interest with me, thus I'd like to meet some like minded people to chat about such adventures and aspects associated with it. I'm located in central London and Im generally free on the weekends - so if you're up for a couple of pints, its on me.

Kind regards,

Nick

I've got a 13:00 in the West End on Tuesday with nothing to do afterwards before heading back to St Pancras. I'll be "booted & suited" but if anyone's up for an afternoon snifter, call a place.

Sitting in the pub feeling like prat for 2 hours. Now nick are you just wasting my time and anyone else's so if anyone is following this page don't waste your time .( I am looking for people who are seriously looking to travel not time wasters) So if there's anyone who is really up for traveling i will meet at High beach essex IG 10
I ride a triumph 800xc white or honda blackbird all black and i am wearing black helmet. I am not out to ride the world with someone because people want to do there own thing its about information and helping each other out along the way and meeting on the same road sometimes everyone wants someone say in Iran meet me in such a place and so on. Its about contacts along the road.

Oh yes if we are meeting up lets have some way of knowing who we are meeting like i will text my number or something

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.
