I really wanted this to be a better post with photos and a good ride story but that will have to wait. Too much going on..
The long and short of it is this..
Tough ride- lots of ups and downs
Over a 1000 feet elevation climb
Awful rocky footing
Lots of hard, unforgiving dirt road riding.. major yuck...
and a few horse issues along the way..
but our final score was a 97 , which put us in first place in the Open division.
A BLUE RIBBON ! Our first win in anything!
Maggie was a total trooper, in spite of some issues. And I learned a valuable lesson about Maggie as well.
Stay tuned for photos...and more about the ride details!
