What is a 'Funride' ?
A funride is a ride organised for riders to enjoy with their horse or pony. Averaging from 8-15 miles long, these FUN
non-competitive events can take you across open farmland, beautiful estates, woodlands, forests, hills, mountains and quiet tracks, many of which you are not normally aloud to go across!
Great points as to why you should go;
You can go alone, with friends and/or familyGet away from the same old hacking routesAccess to great off road ridingMost have optional jumpsGreat for training a young horse, for endurance, cross country and general fitnessNo class or age seperation for horse or riderOpen to all, so if you havn't got a horse, see if you can borrow a friends ;-)Best of all........It's a FUN day out for both you and your horse!NEW VIDEO
