Cool motorcycling Quotes
Saw this one last year on a T-shirt of an 83 years old biker, who bought a new bike a few months before: you don,t stop riding because you,r getting old, but you get old when you stop riding.
My favorite one: remember the time when sex was safe and motorcycles where dangerous

Kansas: home of the highway with 318 miles and 11 curves.

Wow, ain't that true. I went through once and left with a full understanding of why God invented tornados. They are the only thing that makes Kansas interesting.

I went through in the beginning of winter, so the miles and miles of flat farmland were nothing but flat dirt that you aren't allowed to ride on.

Is not what you ride, it`s your attitude that it counts.

I thought that was "I remember when roack climbing was dangerous and sex was safe"

As far as I can tell from the 'now you see him!' adverts on British TV motorcycles are still dangerous, and are a hell of alot quicker than they were back in the day, isn't that why there fun???

Climbing on the other hand is constantly being devalued by 'improvements' in safety equipment and thicker pads etc......

One of my favourites, even though it advertised Harleys was: God didn't create metal so that man could make paper clips!

Thumbs up And a few of my favorites...
As seen on a certain set of Honda C90´s:

"Ditch the bitch, let´s go riding"

"Grass, gas or ass, nobody rides for free"

"Ride, eat, sleep...repeat"

P.s.: Are we really the only ones that put Candybar Pictures on their website?

While we are...
While we are on the subject on things seen on bikes, my mate has on his sports bike mirrors a sticker reading "Caution: Objects in the Mirrors NO LONGER MATTER" .
I used to have on my bike years ago "Have You Hugged Your Bike Today" when the have you hugged your kids today campaign was on.

Regards

Nigel in NZ

Thumbs up Text on a Harley Davidson Advertisement
The Photo is of an Empty School courtyard with the swings and other playground items , and there is a Harley parked in the front.

Text in Big Bold letters says>>


"RIDE , Because children need HEROES."


Really Beautiful ad brings out the brand very well.


Then there is another one that says>>

" God didn't create steel to make paper clips. "

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.
