North Wales, UK, bikers or events
Hi there
I'm a Royal Enfield rider, usually living in Delhi, India, but I'm in Eglwysbach, North Wales, until mid-January. I run a blog on Asian food and motorcycling (victoriaqueenofcuisine.com), and I'm wondering if there is anything going on with biking here during winter - eg quirky events or rides etc - or if any HUBB members run local clubs, or are vintage bike collectors, and so on.
Last year I rode from Mexico City to Panama and everyone on HUBB was incredibly helpful with any queries I had, so I thought I would just put this message out there and see what I get back ...
Thanks and stay warm
Victoria

The big one is the dragon rally in early February. Google Conway motorcycle club. Camping will be sold out but you could either pick up a ticket on eBay mid January once the location is revealed or just turn up and get a day ticket.

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.
