My wife is an artist. She makes sculptures and all sorts of other things. I am hoping she will one day become famous and pay all my future bills. She may be able to help you find the sculpture you want to see and can definately take you to see ones you've never heard of!

That is great. I found the info from a lady that lives near the university.

She wrote: The sculpture name is coatl (means snake in nahuatl) made by Helen 2scobedo.

Hi Ron (and you other guys),
right now i'm in Panama City and i contacted GIRAG Air Cargo to ship the bike to Bogota. They said they could ship it for 900$ and i will do that. I wrote a mail yesterday, got the offer today and i should bring the bike to the airport on saturday - they are fast! I will write again when the bike is in Bogota.

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.
