Next one please!
Hi folks! Starting to let ideas change to plans for next year. Would like to head over to China and tour there before heading on into the rest of Asia. Will either be on my trusty KLR or new F800GS, so as much off road as possible. Last trip was Americas (http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/tstories/caiandles/), 16,000 miles ending at Panama. Done that one alone, company might be nice to start the next one.

Hi all!!

Me and my wifey are leaving next year for a RTW starting may but if the funds don't pan out it might be a little later. Our route is:

Leaving europe through Turkey- Iran - Pakistan - India - down to Australia through Thailand Malesia Laos etc. - from OZ to South america - Central America and the USA - Europe.

Will keep you informed when closer to the date. It seems as if there could be a nice bunch of folks for at least a part of the trip GREAT!

Hope to see you all in Ripley!
Stay safe!
Gosia and Andy

Hi!

if you start on may, maybe you are in South america on september and we would go north together, I don't know wich route we will do, but start from santiago, visiting brazil and go north is one of the posibilities (but with a very low budget)

bye!

Hi everybody, sorry i havent bee on here for a while and didnt realise people had replied, so a nice surprise! it's all about saving money and choosing the right bike for me at the moment- i'm tied between spending going bit and spending probably too much money or getting something more practical! looked at a tenere over the weekend but it didnt feel as solid as id like!

The trip is still on, just booked into a maintenance class starting this september so thats going to be a massive help. planning to get my tefl in the next couple of months so i can stop off and teach english once the funds run dry. hopefully i can meet up with some of you along the way- it's going to be epic!

Matt
