Rtw any route

Around the World Again.
I know it`s a long way off, however, i am wanting to do another RTW, or all the way to Australia!!!!
plan to leave in 2012, i did say along way off, but i am serious,


OK. look, i advertised on here 2 years ago and found 1 guy, Bazza, who joined me on a very successful Rtw. I want to do another one, Bazza you can lead again, now there is a challenge!!
So come on guys or girls lets go.
Genuine guy, i did it in 07 thanks to H. U.

Hey Alan,

Sounds good, but depends on when you're planning on going, and route.

Id love to do it in 2010.

So post any details you have.

Type of trip

hi - can I ask - what kind of trip are you guys planning?

Mainly sticking to roads where possible or looking for every bit of dirt to explore?
Big bikes with all the gear or smaller bikes packing lightly?
Accomodation, tending to the cheap/free or tending to security&comfort?

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.
