Big Thanks Horizons Unlimited
Hi Grant and super team HU,
My wife and I have just returned to the UK after a near three year lap of the planet on our BMW R1150GSA.
I have often used you site for research and planning, and have contributed on several occasions.
We would like to thank everyone involved in running a fantastic source of information for the overland traveller.
We can't stay here for long, so where next, let me think!!!!
Kind regards, Nick & Lesley Poole.

I am new to this forum, however in the short time I have been visiting, I can wholeheartedly agree with the sentiments you have posted.
I have recieved several replies to questions I have asked and also recieved a couple of private messages as well.
PaulS has sent me an email containing his whole trip report of Morrocco, along with accomodation names and addresses - Priceless, first hand info and recomendations.
I had absolutely no hesitation in paying a HUBB subscription because of this great rescource. In fact, if i was to be clinical about it, the answer to just one question from me on this forum will personally save me more money on my trip than 20 subscription fees!!
Many thanks
Rob W

Not sure what happened to my Thank You! post, so reposting.
Nick and Lesley,
Thanks for the kudos, much appreciated, and we're happy we could help make your trip such a success! I look forward to hearing about your next trip! 
Rob, good to hear you're getting answers!
Everyone - while email and PM's are great where appropriate, less email and PM's and more posting ON the HUBB so all can learn from your information is ideal.
thanks all!
Grant and Susan

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.
