Spain - France - Italy - Germany - Poland - Belarus - Russia - Mongolia
Currently in Valencia, Spain headed via Marseilles, France to Berlin, Warsaw and then East.
Ideally would like to travel with other bike(s) but would consider a small, light packing Pillion....

I'll be arriving in Bilbao from Portsmouth on Tuesday May 27 and heading south to Cuenca. May spend a couple of days around there, then heading north east to hit the coast at Tossa de Mar. A few days there and then north to arrive in Brittany the following Wednesday or so. It seems our routes will cross, but assuming your traveling sooner than I am I'll just wish you a safe and enjoyable trip. You should travel some great roads heading that direction, Hope you don't fall foul of the French police with their binoculars, watching your speed from a long way off.

Cheers Brian, indeed seems I am one month ahead of you, which is a shame.
Thanks for the best wishes. Likewise to you, safe trip. Who knows what happens and we all know we can be delayed somewhere.
Peace

Hey Ryan,
We're currently in Le Mans in France, heading along the west coast of France into Spain.
We'll likely go anti-clockwise around Spain (including Portugal), then see Italy, Switzerland, South Germany, Austria, Czech, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Bosnia, Serbia, Macedonia, Albania, Greece, Turkey (then Georgia, Azerbaijan, ferry over the Caspain sea, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakstan, Kyrgyzstan, and so on until SE asia)
Are you keen to meet up some place?
Cheers,
Jaykay

We're currently near Rome. Over the next few days we'll head from here to Florence to Venice, where we'll spend a few more days. Then we'll go to Austria for a week or two, then Czechoslovakia and Slovakia.
Anyone keen to join us?

New to Horizons Unlimited?

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.
