Cornwall 2013 mini meet?

I was wondering if there is going to be a Cornwall mini meet next year, I went to the one in 2011 and really enjoyed it but missed last years as I was away. Are there any plans for one in 2013?

I am going to be in Cornwall in 2013. Not on the bike though and with my parents. I am so excited as I have never been to Cornwall before. We will be there the last week in May for about 3 nights.

Glad it is becoming a popular event. Tiffany emailed me the other week go ask the same question.

I actually hadn't got around to planning anything yet. I start a new job in January and Becky is very busy with her current job too. In fact she only stopped working at 10 tonight and was asleep by 10:30. Whoever said that teachers finish work at 3:30...

With the way things are I am going to have to give it a month or two and see how busy I am going to be before I commit to organising anything. The benefit of that is the weather may improve slightly, unless anybody else feels like taking it on this year.

Smile sorting out...

Hey Iain (Rossi)
no pressure, but if you want help to arrange one and lay it on I'm sure there will be plenty of folk who can help out. You do such a great job. I've got my own commitments down at this end of Cornwall in 2013 otherwise I'd suggest helping out. Maybe Blue Hills can host us near St Agnes?? A beautiful part of Cornwall.

Talking Hurray!!

We ARE having a Cornwall Mini-Meet.

I've booked my place on the campsite- it's in a beautiful location with great riding nearby.
I've heard they're even going to get some kegs of Cornish ale in for the weekend.

Look forward to seeing you all down here- though it's still "up north" for me!

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.
