Pen Ddol Y Gader Ride, May 22 and 23.

This ride went off successfully in excellent weather. 17 riders took part on Saturday and 34 on the Sunday. A big thank you to Karin, Hilary and all the helpers for organizing the rides.

We have received the following emails:

From: Anita Gordon.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone yesterday for such a lovely ride.  We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, even with all the dramas that seemed to be happening.  I was very sorry that Alex retired, but it in the heat like we had yesterday, it was really important that Jimmy's welfare came first. Happily the vet pronounced him fine.  Anyway, all's well that end's well, as they say.

From: Christine Clinch. 

Many thanks for a lovely ride on Sunday. Despite the heat there were refreshing breezes to keep one going & helpful people to put one right on course ( my map reading is hopeless) & share water( Harry was very generous). Theresa was a good companion & Beau was not too pleased when she & her horse went a different way but after the loop I met up with Anita & had her company the rest of the way. It was all very enjoyable & hope it all went well for you .    

Chair’s report, May 2010

We had a successful Easter weekend ride at Tower Forest, Brechfa, our numbers were a little down since our original date was cancelled due to ice and snow. We had 28 riders for the Kentucky ride on Sunday, and 12 for the Monday ride. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and the tracks rode well after the rain.

We had an enjoyable evening's Quiz night at the Sextons Arms, Llansadwrn, on April 21st. A very good set of questions was organized by Karin and Hilary and about 27 people attended including some stalwart representatives of the Mid Wales group. We hope to repeat this next year and will be brave enough to advertise it locally, now that we've done it once!

At risk of being a bore can I remind everyone that the phone and email contact details for Pen Ddol Y Gader in your EGB membership handbook are incorrect. Please contact me for the Saturday May 22 Pleasure ride, and fill in an entry form and send to Karin for the Competitive and Pleasure rides on Sunday.

 Chair’s report, January 2010

Happy New Year, I hope everyone survived the freeze up, I still get a lift when I turn on the tap in the stables and water comes out! It is great to be riding as opposed to just being my horses' servant. We have changed the name of our spring ride to the Tower Forestry ride from Valentines as the forestry could not let us have the Valentine dates. It is a two day ride to enable people to ride one day and help on the other. Don't forget that in order to get the members entry fee, you must show a 2010 membership card, or an Associate members ride card. Here’s wishing you all a successful endurance season 

Jane.
