Bridleways surveys …

We all worry about riding on the roads from a safety aspect but not that many people have filled in the survey regarding bridleway provision at www.clwydrangerider.co.uk .  This is a chance to have your say – you may want improved bridleways or to get rid of bridleways so take the opportunity now to get involved.  It takes less than 5 minutes!

Thanks … Chrissie

Congratulations and Well done!!!

Congratulations to Oliver Williams who won the Area 5 Winter League Novice Dressage and has qualified for the Winter League Championships. Good Luck.
