The HUBB PUB Chat forum - no useful content required!

BUT the basic rules of polite and civil conduct which everyone agreed to when signing up for the HUBB, will still apply, though moderation will be a LITTLE looser than elsewhere on the HUBB.

Hi Richard
This will be my third HUBB and have no fear making friends and chat will start at the gate as you enter and won't end to you leave with a big smile through the same gate. The good way to break the ice is volanteer to help of an hour or two trust me its rewarding. Another is stand in the bar and shout "i will buy you a pint if your name is Dai"

See you at the bar

Dai

Hi Richard

I've found the HUBB to be one of the most friendly events out there on the scene, you have to show a bit of willing and get chatting, but once you do you can't stop!

We are all a friendly bunch, I hope you have a wonderful time

Cheerio

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
