Was he the sort of person to frequent nightclubs? In my opinion that's where you should be looking, drunk people at nightclubs are very vulnerable, especially at 23 years of age

Arrow No News

Jeff in Cuzco says there's no news from his end, but he's passing the word. He also has a bike place in Northen Peru, near the Gocta Waterfall and is asking bike travellers and others coming through there.

I think we met Graham in Cartegena around the end of February. It sounded like he was having a great time. Hope all is well.

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.
