More riding -- experienced rider summer fun







The most experienced riders are always looking for a new challenge. One of the great assets of our farm is the 1/3 mile training track that Chuck's Aunt Alice built to train her horses on jog carts for trotter and pacer races. Today, it serves as a great place for a first trail ride. The views (as you see from this picture!) are gorgeous. And it is a pretty safe area.

Now, our industrious riders have worked with Chuck to put some hunter/jumper type obstacles (I am sure all my verbiage is wrong -- way out of my element) down there to make a fun course. Safety is always a priority, so Linda has told the riders with permission to use the 'course' that they must be supervised by her AND they have to wear a flak jacket. As you can see in the picture, it doesn't seem to diminish the fun!
