Going up

Hi everyone heading South,
you're in for a great ride as I'm sure has been mentioned many times before

We are two up on a very heavy 1200GSA heading North, so could meet a few of you on the way maybe have a or two, would be good.
Currently in Cochabamba, Bolivia and moving sloooowly!!
If you see us on the road give us a wave, we always slow down to see if passing bikes are stopping but haven't had much contact for the last couple of months.
Our website has a fair bit of info on it regarding camping/accom. that we have used so far and other stuff. Be aware tho that as is always the case, information is out of date before you have finished reading it!!

Ride safe and we look forward to that

unstoppable on the same way

Hey Simon

Yes, yes... The mom's and their worries... I also felt a little bit bad, because I live my dream and she has to worry about me at home....

Think now she's fine. She was more afraid about Iran, Centralasia and Russia....

I'm in San-Francisco right now, heading south towards Ushuaia.

Maybe our ways cross somewhere. You can track me on >>> the unstoppables &ndash; we stop at nothing <<<

Hasta luego

Glenn

PS, please use my email to answer me, you'll find it on the homepage

Updates: I am in Vegas right now and I need to figure out where I'll be entering Mexico. I might need to stay here a few more nights as I need to plan this ahead this time, I havent done that yet

I'd be nice to enter Mexico along with other riders, wherever it might be.

Thank you for your support, greatly appreciated!!

Hey guys

I'm in San Diego right now. Have to make a a bikeservice here on Friday, than I'll enter Mexico on Sunday or Monday.

Would be nice to travel with someone for a while. Since Mongolia I'm on the Road allone. That was OK, but I like the mix of travelling allone and in a group...

So if you're on the way to enter Baja soon, let me know

Glenn

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.
