Hi Benmac
I have added your plans.
I am planing on doing the KKH September / October so if you do decide on that route it could work out. How close till the time are you going to make your decision? I was planing on starting to speak with travel agents early 2015

Hi Kim,
I'm just trying to get all my ducks in a row at the moment.
It looks like I will have my business sold by the end of October, my renovations on my house should be done by November so I can rent it out, so I should be able to commit by December. At this stage I would say I am 95% definite. Can't wait, I'm getting excited just thinking about it!
Ben.

Kashgar (Chine) - Tibet - Katmandou
Bonjour,
Nous traverserons le Tibet depuis le Kirghizistan du 28 septembre au 21 octobre 2015 et nous sommes à la recherche d'autres véhicules afin de diminuer le coût. Pour l'instant 2 véhicules sûrs sont inscrits dans l'agence Chengdu Greatway Tour Co ( Voyage au Tibet et Trekking au Tibet, Self-drive au Tibet, Kailash Trekking | Voyageautibet.com). C'est l'agence la plus intéressante qu'on ait pu trouver. Si voulez la contacter, demandez Nicolas.

Bien cordialement,

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.
