To Oscar and his wonderful family thank you very much, muchas gracias, for the way they looked after the travelling bikers. To those travellers that by-passed the meeting, their liver, kidneys and dietician might thank them for it but the memories more than compensate for the body damage done. To those that are heading to the south of Argentina/Chile next December, my advice, hit the Viedma meeting and to hell with the consequences. Ride safe.

I went in 2003 and it was on of the best mc meetings I have been to.
:mch appy:
this year I did not make it, but hopefully next year ...

This going to be happening this year? Dates? Trying to come up with some type of long term outlook plan and attend a meeting that I missed in California a ways back.

I'll plan on it
Looking forward to it.
Grant is there anyway I can put my California funds towards this meeting?
I'd paid up and was trying to make the Lost Coast meeting in 2009 but wasn't able to make it out West for it. I told Susan just save the funds and I would attend another in the future.

Sure - but since we don't charge for this meeting, not sure how much help it would be! Any payment made is only on the day to cover the hosts expenses, nothing for us. Save it for another one!

Wouldn't you know it, I start trying to plan something out too far ahead and I'm already shot down from it. Looks like I will have to wait for 2013
Going to leave the bike way too far North and not have enough time to make it that far South for this year's event but I can see next year is looking good

Scheduling scheduling, After Deadhorse Alaska and BurningMan I return to Buenos Aires at the end of October. Was hoping to do a few months in north Brasil before it got too hot. I can squeeze this in somehow!

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.
