Hello from northern Germany

As being a new Member of the HUBB, i will introduce myself

I got my Driving License for Motocycles in early 1995 and since then i made a lot of Yourneys through Europe. At least three Times the Alpes, the long Way to the Nordkapp and two shorter Trips offroad in around Liguria.
I owned one Yamaha XJ 600 and 900 Diversion, the big Thumper Suzuki DR800 Big and now the great XT1200Z ST

I`m looking here for Ridereports, Tips for Gear and Bikes and last but not least for People, who like to ride on Motorcycles

New to Horizons Unlimited?

New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

Susan and Grant Johnson Read more about Grant & Susan's story

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.
