Stolen in Naples GS1200 Rallye

Bike, luggage etc stolen in Naples city centre early on Monday morning. All immobilised, Abus Disc Lock, chain etc but was likely lifted on to a flatbed by organised gangs.

If anyone happens to see it being ridden/transported around Southern Italy please give us a shout.

Sorry to hear your bike got stolen in EU; I recently indeed also discovered that you have to be very alert on scams / thieves etc in Europe (the rest form my trip from Asia to Europe was much safer)

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.
