London - Sydney Early 2009

Hi Guys!

Im Joe, 21 from Bexley. Im on the verge of getting my full bike license and looking to travel from London to Sydney via Kazakstan, Siberia down to South East Asia. This has been a life long ambition of mine, and would love to share it with like-minded folk with similar ambitions etc. Looking at 20% hotel/hostels and 80% camping. Trip would be around 6 months.

If you would like to chat further, would be great to hear from you! Just drop me an E-mail @ joehosier@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks guys!

Joeh

contact me when in Australia - we could catch up for a ride and yarn. I am looking at the Caspian Sea from the UK in 2010, but would like to hear about your travels through Asia to Australia.

cheers
Dave

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.
