    Horizons Unlimited 2006

    A good time seemed to be had by all. An early night for me after three nights of liver-abuse and not much sleep.

    Lots of bike pics from the weekend here:

    I may consider trying to make the Belgium meet in September. If anyone else is interested, let me know and we'll organise something

    Kewl pics Richie, was a great meet again and think we spend more time chatting and having a great time instead of sitting listening to the talks

    My morning yesterday started at 5:00 am trying to get organised to meet Chad at 6:30 on the M25/A127 junction. As you would expect things do go wrong such as my bike keys gone missing from the night before. After frantically searching every where eventually found them on the kitchen floor

    Our trip towards Derby took us via the A1 and ermmmm a few interesting detours thanks to my amazing GPS reading capabalities, luckilly Chad decided said something by the time we got close to Kings Lynn Faantjie showed his complete trust in me getting us there by buying a proper map book

    Here is some pics I took the weekend, Chad and Fanus checking the sexy lines of the new KTM 990 Adventure



    Nick Plumb's 650 Dakar GS











    Chad's very clean AT in a field



    And my not so clean AT in the field



    but wait there is more.....Faantjie's Transalp .....in the field



    Nice R80GS Basic









    Harley Davidson with rotax motor



    The new 1200GS Adventurer is also very nice





    Honda Valkerie is also good for touring....









    There sure was more than enough space for camping with the extra field being opened







    Who said you need a DS bike to see the world





























    Chad had to endure some South-African eating habits ranging from biltong, boerewors and good old rusks with his coffee



    We sure had enough stove between the three of us!









    Metal Mule panniers is really cool though expensive
