San Francisco, CA to Bogota Colombia summer of 2005

Hey everyone!
Planning a trip from San Francisco to Bogota, Colombia and back. For next summer, that is 2005, travel dates are not exact. Between the months of june and august I am Colombian and I am going down there to visit friends and spend a really good time.

Anybody up for it? half of it? a third of it?

Hi,
I live in SF too and am planning a trip from Alaska to Argentina starting in June 2005.
I will be driving between Mexico and Colombia around August.
Cheers,
Anne.

Hey Anne!
Most likely I will be on my way up in august, but we can always cross paths. This is my first big trip overland. I crossed the states, and i went to china and travelled there. But nothing like what i am about to do. If you live in sf, i would appreciate, if you have time, some tips and advice and probably some good routes through central america. What bike are you doing ur trip on?

thanks for the help

Let's meet around a fresh soon.

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.
