Morning!

I think that the first event I will enter is the Intro @ B College 17th June...

I've never been there, and it's a fair distance for me to travel, so I want to know what it's like for an Intro, the first Intro for us?

And does anyone have any pics they can put up for me?

It is a very straight forward first intro:-
I don't have any pictures, but can roughly describe the usual course if it helps (probably will make some mistakes as much is not very memorable!):- log, rail, flower/carrot box (this is quite big and bright for an intro, roll top or pheasant feeder, double of rails on a turn (4 -5 strides in between), pallisade, double of boxes (or something), rails, birch/woven fence, little step up, fence feeder to little drop, little corner, brush type fence, splash through water, last fence - brush type again?


It is short and pretty much all flat. I don't know where you are in the country, but it is more straight forward than something like MK which is on around the same time.

Good luck
 
No problem - hopefully won't be too much of a trek. We're about 20 mins from BCA (just outside Henley) and it takes us about an hour or so to get to Merrist Wood (although I appreciate that is our side of Guildford).

BCA also often SJ on their surface, which is good if ground is solid (but can be spooky as the indoor stables look out over the indoor school).
 
Erm... depends on the whether. Was nice last September, dont know what its going to be like in June!!

If its gonna be hot then the ground does tend to harden up a lot. Generally its not to bad though.
