Dubai RIDERS 2 Europe for summer tour

Hi everybody

i wish everything went somothly and enjoyable during the summer.
our team started our Europ tour on 23Aug-13Sep.

based on the polical setuation inthe middle east we cannot hit the road to reach Europ, additional to that the heat in the summer is above 40.

So, we shipped our 6 bikes to Athens, spend some days, then we toke the ferry to Ancona then ride to Rome spend few days, then to Milan, after that to Stresa to watch a Xcat power boat racing which was managed by Dubai Marine club. we spend the night in Logano.

on the next day we visited Stelvio and spend the night in one of the hotels on the pass. it was a perfect and amazing roads, all the members enjoyed the turnes/curves.

after Stelvio, we went to ZellamSee, then to Munch, Uslar, Flensburg,Helsingburg in Swenden.

over all the trip was fantastic and this is our 2nd year to visit Europ during the summer.

wish to see you in Dubai.
Regards
Dubai RIDERS

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.
