There has been a water flooding over the recording studio I run earlier today and water has come down inside the studio. Nightmare.

Dear Hellboy,
I don't wish to be pedantic, but I think you actually mean libel and not slander. For your information, Libel is the written word and slander is the spoken word. Btw, I bet you ride a BMW Touratw@t equiped GS1200, don't you?
Best regards

English is my third language so I do screw up every once in awhile.
I used to ride this for quite many years....
My first bike actually. It had a car tire on the back.  And then I had a Panhead from -48. And then I had a side valve from -47. And then I had a Knucklehead with a side car from -36. And then I had a Fatboy from -01. And now I have the Beemer. Want to get a Ural with a side car just for fun.
What do you ride?

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.
