Yanus,
I've just checked your route schedule and it looks as though we could be in Samarkand at the same time. I'll keep an aye out for your group (I'll be in my blue Land Rover Defender).
Good luck with the trip.

Hi Guys
we will keep you informed about our progress and would be great to drink more than one
Slightly changed our route plan:
- skipped Azerbaijan due to risk of 3K$ deposit - no one can confirm why but it happens. Also Polish embassy informs about this practice :/
-as above we resigned from ferry from Aktau to Baku and we will travel around caspian sea to Chechnya and then to Georgia.
I will publish new schedule soon.
cheers
Yanus

Website still active?
None of the links to the silk road adventure project are working for me. I'd love to take a look at your rout. Is there any way to access the information you had on your site? I'm wanting to do a similar rout starting in August but don't have much info or any partners yet.

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
