HELP! Russian multiple entry Visas

So i was all set today to send off my application for a business multiple entry visa complete with Letter of Invertation only to be told by the agency here in Vancouver(that you now have to use, no direct applications!) that they are cracking down on issuing them to tourists and that my application WILL be rejected!

So has anyone had any experience of getting a biz visa very recently or even getting a double entry tourist visa and then maybe a single entry while on the road???

Any HELP would be appreciated i was meant to be leaving in a month :-(

I just received my double entry tourist visa yesterday with no problems (course, I am not AT the border yet) . The visa included the invitation letter also. Used a site called Go to Russia in San Francisco (and Atlanta). They said they could do it in 8 days and they easily did.
BTW. I am in the USA so .......

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.
