Hi,
More the merrier I say. Riding in a bigger group would be a laugh. Do you have a route in mind?

Your trip
I am leaving from Switzerland third week of April, heading East: Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Kosovo, Serbia, Albania, Bulgaria and Romania. Should be about 2 weeks trip to reach Romania depending on what's on the way to see.
If this is the direction you'd like to head to, welcome to join.
Accommodation: mostly camping.
Bike: BMW R1200GS
Route: small roads, mountain passes, some dirt tracks.
No death wish and no intention paying speeding fines.
If it sounds interesting drop me a line. Thanks.

Looking at things Dave, I agree that its smarter to go to Norway a bit later. Also I see a great route with Mauricio to South France and then Italy, then up to Norway via Czech Republic & Poland (ferry to Sweden, then 5hrs ride to Oslo). I have a friend staying on a farm near Oslo, and a few other biker mates there. Italy will be great with Mauricio and a few of our Italian friends who also ride.
Still haven't picked either of the two bikes, but I will very soon. Just waiting on the seller of the Caponord, but I'm starting to swing back to the more expensive but maybe more sell-able Pegaso 660 with Yamaha engine. What do you think would sell faster in the UK, the 07 pegaso with 17000 miles for 2000GBP or the 03 Caponord with 38000 miles for 1500GBP?

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.
