Hello and Greetings from the Mosel Valley, Germany

Hi everyone. Just registered here and looking forward to spending a little time with you all, actually or through cyberspace.

Getting-on-a-bit-biker who wants to get a little more fulfillment from bike trips, which have so far been 'fast and furious', local to home and limited. Attended my first HU meeting in Germany in October and could not believe how many friendly people seemed to share this outlook, all of whom had time for me and made me very welcome. I was inspired and am now planning my first real 'adventure' trip!

I live between the Mosel in Germany and Northumberland in the UK. Run a bike tours business (Mosel Valley Bike Tours), look after 4 retired, saved greyhounds (greys).

Looking forward to being an active member of this great community. HELLO!!

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.

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.
