Ride Description

VENUE:

Meeting at John Brady’s property at Grubbed Road, Enfield. Please ensure that you close the front gate of the property when entering and leaving. Drive up the drive to the

“Pavilion” where there is amply room for floats and water for horses. As always when visiting this wonderful venue, you will be expected to clean up horse poo etc. before leaving.

RIDE: 

This is the first NN ride for 2018 and a chance to get the cobwebs out of horse and rider before the Forrest Camp on Australia Day weekend. This will be a leisurely ride via bush tracks & gravel roads, suitable for barefoot horses. We will return to floats for lunch for those who wish to socialize, so bring a sandwich drinks etc. if needed. The ride can be done at a walk but there will be the opportunity for a trot or canter if this suits everyone.

Please arrive about 9.00 am to register and saddle up for a 10 am (sharp) ride out.
