Who's Coming?

We need to "reserve" the pitches ready for the meeting on 9 - 12 Sept.

If you´re coming and haven´t already told us, or if you might be coming, please drop either myself or Dakota a line.

Cheers

I'm headed back to Morocco in September. Unfortunately I have an event in London on 17 September which I can't miss, so I won't be arriving in Malaga until about 21 September. Pity I will miss this, as I really enjoyed the first inaugural meet, especially Vaufi's talk on South Africa.

Hope everything goes well for you.

Tim

We're visiting friends in the south of France and then Spain, leaving UK on 31st so will be down there around the right time. Is it a casual "mini meet" i.e. no cost :-) Or a full blown Ripley type affair? We're tight on funds so it will make the decision for us!

Cheers
Pete

HU Meet Spain 2010 - Update.

Freeee? (say it with a Scottish accent), I guess so, we are small meet, nothing like the size of Ripley. But anyone and everyone are always welcome.

For those that have updated us on their travel plans, we are just coming off the back of mini heat wave, air temperatures in the mid 40's and road temperatures 15 to 20 degrees higher - although there was a noticeable drop today of about 10 or more degrees.

I mention this because:
(a) we are expecting seasonal intermittent showers and the roads maybe slimier than a greased ice rink and
(b) be prepared against dehydration if the temperatures stay high.

If there are no penthouse suites left can you book me a campsite near to the toilet block in anticipation of things to come. Ride safe.

Pool will be open, so don't forget your swimmers!

Guys,

On the way back from a local motorcycle meet, dropped into the camp site to ensure that the pool would be open for the HU Meet and yes it will!

SO MAKE SURE YOU BRING YOUR SWIMMERS!

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.
