Question
Hey all, I have never attended any of the HU events and recently got back into riding after about a 6 year break. I am living here in Germany currently and saw this posting for the meeting in May. I see from the forum that most of the post are in English, but what about the classes and presentations at the meeting? I am from the US living here temporarily and unfortunately have learned very little German. It seems like it would be fun to meet people with similar interests and experiences.
Thanks

I have only attended HU meetings in the US so far. This will also be my first German meeting. I don't think you will encounter any language barriers. From what I can see so far, most people speak or understand English.
Looking forward to seeing you there.

No worries, presentations, workshops, etc. are usually held in English as well.

Re: 10th HU Germany Meeting Spring 2013 - Welcome!(17.5.-20.5.2013)
I'm polish living in Germany but my language of choice is still English. Never had any problems communicating in this language at German HU meetings. Cheers, Greg

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.
