Welcome to Horizons Unlimited and the HUBB Mathias!

Keep us posted - send me updates from the road with a few pictures and I'll put you in the ezine.

Don't forget to check the Shipping section when you have to ship the bike, also the Border Crsosings section, and input what you learn as you go.

have a great trip!

Good luck with the trip. I will be leaving the UK about the same time but supposed to be partying in Budapest August 12/13 so might be a bit behind you. I will need to stop and head back by mid-Sept so won't get as far as you, but happy to meet up if paths look likely to cross. Will be on 93 Super Ten.

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.
