Hi Anna/Julie
Iam thinking about bringing Kez. Do you know if the road work is on quiet roads and are the grass tracks like a lane or wide open spaces where naughty ponies can run for miles and miles?, I'm taking rescue remedy just thinking about it!
thanks Karen

Karen, sorry I've not been in touch, i'm not going to ride it until the end of the month but I will make enquiries as to the route but I gather the 7 mile is a really nice gentle ride.
Upping this for people, open to everyone and every type of pony. Would love a good turnout for this.
Anna
