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.

Win VIP hospitality to the British SuperBikes at Silverstone with Opie & Castrol

Hi Folks,
We've got a "money can't buy" prize for our August competiton!

Yes, those nice folk at Castrol have kindly offered us 2 fantastic VIP hospitality packages for 2 lucky winners and a guest each to the penultimate round of the British Superbikes Championship at Silverstone over the weekend of 25 - 27 September 2009.

No purchase necessary.

The prizes almost didn't make it further than our office ("oilman + 3") but The Boss intervened ;-)

So, get this little lot:

* Race Day - Sunday 27 September - Castrol VIP hospitality:
o MCE British Superbikes event and a full programme of supporting races and entertainment
o Lunch and drinks as a guest of Castrol
o A talk from one of the riders over lunch
o Track-side access
o A walk around the garages

* General admission for the British Superbikes free practice and a full supporting programme on Friday 25 September 2009

* General admission for the British Superbikes qualifying and a full supporting programme on Saturday 26 September 2009

* ... and Opie Oils will throw in enough top quality, fully synthetic Castrol oil for an oil change on your car or motorbike

2 chances to win! Sweet :-p



This month, you need to name the rider appearing in our cropped down photo from the following 5 choices:

a. Karl Muggeridge
b. James Toseland
c. Roberto Rolfo
d. Leon Camier
e. Glen Richards

Enter here: Opie Oils - car oil and motorbike oil sales and recommendations

Entries before close of play on Tuesday 25th August 09 please.

Good luck!
Guy and the team at Opie Oils

We have 2 lucky winners! They are:

Aaron Causley, who's a member of the East of England Bikers forum and Paul Palmer (who frequents the pistonbroke, passionford, scoobynet, uklegacy.com and focusstoc forums).

Paul and Aaron both win tickets to the British Superbikes at Silverstone later this month for themselves and a guest as VIP guests of Castrol, general admission for the free practice and qualifying days, plus some top quality, fully synthetic Castrol oil for their car / motorbike. We stock a very wide range of Castrol oils, lubricants and workshop products, so if you're after something for your vehicle, you know where to come ;-)

Congratulations to both of you; we're sure you'll have a great day!

So... sorry if you didn't win, but there's always the next time. Look out for our September competition, coming soon!

Thanks to everyone who entered.

The answer was [E] Glen Richards

Look out for our next competition coming soon. In the mean time check our website as we have just put up a nice little offer

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.
