Malaria pills for Africa
Anyone going to Africa this year? I figured I'd get malaria at least once in the 9 months I was there without taking anything for preventing it, but never did.
I have a couple treatments of Coartem 20/120 with a 2010 exp. date I'm looking to 'pass on' for a big discount off original price.
Look me up at Ripley.

+1 to that too!
Huge thanks to all the Organisers, kudos to Austin Vince - the Voice of Reason ;-)
Looking forward to next year already...
Any appetite for a Midlands Micro Meet sometime later in the year..?

+ another 1
aside from thanks to everyone that organised and presented, a massive thanks to Grant for letting me have his spare inner tube, and the couple from Sunderland (sorry - crap with remembering names) that very kindly came out of their way to drop it off to me 4.5 miles outside of Ripley.
How thankful was I that I attended Grants 'how to change a tyre (tire?) presentation.
as you can see from the attached pic, there was no way a repair patch was going to fix 'that' tube

A huge 'Thank You' to Grant, Sue and the HU Team for a great weekend in Denby. The speakers were fantastic and I learned more in one weekend with fellow traveller's than I ever could in a lifetime on the Internet .... it's time to buy a new map and hit the road again.

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.
