California to Argentina

I will be riding my 650 GS from San Diego to Tierra del Fuego starting in mid-late January 2008. Anyone care to join me for all/part of the trip. I have no time restraints, plan to see & do as much as possible. Thereafter to New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Vietnam, Laos, Tibet, Nepal and onwards.

HI,

I was thinking of shipping my KLR to Uruguay and traveling to TDF. Did you ride yours down or ship it?

Thanks.

John

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.
