50% or more off! What a deal! Thanks Niklaus! Make sure you tell Niklaus you saw it here "...I am weekly if not daily on your site, what a pleasure to read and dream about trips. I am convinced this is one of the best motorcycling sites on the net... Three years ago, I got my license and my first motorcycle, and now I am thinking how I could get rid of my business and travel... In the meantime, I own a small hotel on Silver Star Mountain, Vernon, BC and I invite all 2 wheel travelers to stay at my place on their way to and from anywhere. The price will be at least 50% off regular rate, depending on the story they have. This is not to solicit business but to meet friendly travelers on 2 wheels. Regards and thanks again for the site, Niklaus Fux"

"...group of Backpacker Accommodation Providers in New Zealand . Budget Backpacker Hostels ...guide to NZ's Network of Hostels." from an HU user, Mel Wagner, Germany: "THE ONE AND ULTIMATE SOURCE of proper information about Backpackers in New Zealand - it is far better than any other thing and the brochures you get in the hostels (and maybe even by mail) tell you almost EVERYTHING about the place you go to: e.g. size of dorms, disabled facilities, laundry, rating of other travellers, appr. price, distance from town-centre, pool, contact address, map for orientation etc."

"We are three ex-backpackers who have recently opened a new hostel in Lima... We wanted to take the best out of every hostel we've ever been to; make a hostel that's cozy and comfortable, and yet fun. A place with services of the highest level, but one that doesn't over-charge... capture the special atmosphere everybody looks for in a hostel... a spacious kitchen and most importantly a huge locked and safe parking space where you can store your bike and even work on it. Also, because we helped a few bikers in getting parts and fixing bikes, we now pretty much know where everything is in the city in regards to bikes, mechanics and parts shops."
