If you're coming to Zagreb, send a message to grab a or two, or if in need of anything else, just hail

ride on
I'm likely to be in Zagreb in August. Any recommendations for camping in the area, or cheap hotels with secure parking for bikes?

Cheers,

If you don't get any recommendations nearer, this place is around 30 miles away from Zagreb.

I've stayed here a couple of times, fantastic showers and overall a nice place to be. N45.41962 E15.48377

Do any of the UK insurer companies include BiH and Montenegro on the Green Cards they issue? Or is it only insurance companies on the other side of the channel that include countries in the continent of Europe in their European cover?

They SHOULD include it,indeed they are legally obliged to include it as the UK is a signatory to certain legislation, as are say BiH and MNE, oddly as is Iran too for that matter.

Like all big corporations, they may or may not though. Check it out when you renew your insurance, or write to the actual company that underwrites your policy.

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.
