Bloody good weekend but next time i'm going on the brewery tour!!

May I say it was great to meet everybody and if anybody feels I owe them a drink please don't hold it against me and next time you bump into me do not be shy and say so.



Yours Brian.

Smile Many thanks for a grand weekend.

Good to meet you all and thanks to Chris for organising a smashing piss up in a brewery! Ace !
Shame about my clutch going on Sat AM... New clutch plates ordered, (Gear 4) - slight delay waiting for new springs. Be good as new in time for the Ides of March Rally - Todmorden the weekend after next...
Cheers to all that attended!

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.
