Ride Description
VENUE:
Float parking will be on the north side of Incolls Road adjacent to the old “Air Navigation
Facility. (We have parked there previously). Enter Incolls Road from the Ballarat-Colac
Road and travel west for approximately 3 klms, parking off road to the right (or north side).
Those coming from the Ross Creek direction can approach along Incolls Road from the opposite end.
RIDE:This ride will be mostly reasonably flat bush tracks which meander through the bush. It is a
very relaxing ride, ideal underfoot for barefoot horses, and approximately 15 kilometers in distance. This ride is suitable for those with green horses or basic riding skills. We will return to the floats for lunch and a cuppa (for those who wish to stay on), and if there is any interest a short ride will be run after lunch.
Please arrive about 9.00 am to register and saddle up for a 10 am (sharp) ride out.
