Brazil HU meeting, what happened???

Hey guys, noticed the HU meeting in Rio was cancelled due to some date problems, I was not going due to the date also.
But I may have a solution, I can organize a meeting in Foz do Iguaçu(Iguassu Falls) that's the border with Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina. As the city is situated strategically on border and has some attractive places, would be a good place to host a meeting.

Here are some things that i can organize:

Food and acomodation for as many felllows as necessary(camping or rooms)
Day tour to Paraguay, Brazil and Argentina at the same day.
Visiting the ''Itaipu Dam'' on a technical tour, not only the ordinary tour.

If I see some names and dates that you would like, I would be pleased to organize in order not to cancel the Brazilian meeting. Also some tips from Grant or everyone is very welcome.

Cheers
Rod

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.
