Well all sorts of vehicles crop up in this LR thread and the Toy continues to be discussed in here, but what makes me go all weak and wobbly at the knees is a Ford Transit van.

ah, you mean like Lilly, me old tranny
This was what I drove over the Alps via Stelvio and then onto the transfag before heading through Ukraine into Belarus, supporting a group of bikers. Got a standing ovation from them at the bottom of the transfag, they didn't realise a tranny van could go that fast, such are the joys of shagged brakes and gravity!!

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.
