Contact details for Paul Gowen - RAC carnet arranger

Hi..

I'm looking for a phone number and/or Email address for Paul Gowen at the RAC..

He's the guy that arranged Carnets.

I tried the address on the HU links page but it bounces back as an unrecognised address.

Can anyone help ??

Thanks, Ted

Ted

e-mail is: pkgowen%%%AT%%%rac%%%DOT%%%co%%%DOTuk (i'm sure if you're not a spambot, you'll work it out)

tel no is: 08000 468 375 (be persistent, as you typically could get piped straight through to his voicemail service)

I know these are correct as I spoke to Paul (and exchanged emails with him) just last week.

I've sent 3 e-mails in the last few weeks and had the automated reply 3 times but still no proper response. Let us know if you get anywhere. Thanks.

Try carnets at rac ...

Paul may be busy or away, but there are other people there dealing with carnets and they will get your emails.

Hi Stephan! Still in Sharjah or already on the road?

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.
