Hi Merlin

Thanks for advising the problem with Sunrise e-mail address. I notice there is also an Application Request Form available from the site. It is possible that they have deleted that e-mail address due to high levels of spam, which tends to result when you have a visible (to spambots) e-mail address on a web page. But if this were the case, they should have deleted the address from the page completely.

I have called their 1-800 number tonight and left a message indicating that their e-mail address listed isn't working, so hopefully will hear back tomorrow with a correct address. In the meantime, the 1-800-478-7648 number is working (albeit it was their after hours message I received), so have you tried that number?

BTW, Sunrise is not an advertiser. There are a few advertisers on the Links page, and they will be obvious because they have banner listings, not just text listings. Sunrise was used by Andy Miller this past summer and he was happy with their service, so that's why they have a listing at all. We'd appreciate your letting us know if you are unable to contact them or have any problems with their service, so we can update or delete the listing as needed.

Thanks

Okay, I have new contact information for Sunrise Worldwide. Their new website is being updated, but their 1-800-478-7648 number is operational, and although any of the staff can assist with motorcycle insurance for non-US or Canadian residents, if you ask for Alex Vargas, I'm told he speaks passable German, Spanish and can struggle with Dutch.

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.
