Thought we could start a thread to warn people of cancellations we know about - will ask Admin to sticky it... I have seen many people talk about upcoming events - do please check they are still running!!!


Confirmed Cancellations:

<font color="red">SUNDAY 16th SEPT - OBH Fun Ride </font>

Edited by HHO Admin to say - also check out the cancellations page on the main website.

Does this mean the British Breeding champs might be off? Thats only 4 weeks away and the FMD restrictions last a while don't they...

Merrist Wood is still on this weekend, I am off there tomorrow. They are just asking that if you are in the zones to not come.

Thanks Admin - its a shame we cannot sticky this too as not everyone goes onto the News pages on the main website, but I am sure what with people adding to this thread, it will stay current!
 
I have been asked to post the cancellation of the Endurance GB Sherwood Ride and 3 Rivers Ride this weekend, following the Foot &amp; Mouth outbreaks in Surrey.
Nottinghamshire is many miles from the outbreak, but the venue is a working sheep farm with cattle, even the slightest risk is too great to take.
We all just hope that this thing dosn't spread further.

I think we all should look at this site

http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/diseases/fmd/rural/horses.htm

The part that seems more relavant is:

General requirements
This section is aimed at people with horses kept outside a Protection or
Surveillance Zone. There are few restrictions affecting people with horses
outside these zones. However, the following do apply:

You must not organise or take part in hunting a drag or other trail
http://www.defra.gov.uk/animalh/diseases/fmd/rural/horses.htm#3

This is also on the same page:

If you do not observe these requirements, you may commit an offence, and the
local authority may take enforcement action against you. In each case, a
footnote shows which provision of the Order creates the offence.

Doesn't look good
