Australia touring - December/Jan?

Mates,

Is anyone touring parts of Australia in December/January?

If so, and you don't mind another set of wheels with you, let me know.

I'm in Melbourne and I need to get some dirt under my wheels

Ari

Hi Ari

Am new to all this (hopefully buying a bike in the next week or so - probably only a postie though! ), but am planning to drive from Brissie to Melbourne early December, then over to Tassie for a little tour ..

If the slowness of a 110 wouldn't bother you, get in touch

Cheers,

Tanya

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.
