On one of the hacks today there was an accident.
Two bikes on the bridleway, one stops and shouts to his friend to stop, but he revved up and went past. Horse bolted and ditched the rider, second horse bolted followed by third, they were all scared sh*tless. Second rider came off.
I got the call, and went down with my sis. Ambulance had been called but like us, struggled to get to the horses as it was on bridleway.
I scrambled down a bank through thorns and nettles to get to them. Some people had helped by holding one of the horses and calling the ambulance.
Poor helper taken to hospital, probably with broken collarbone.. Girls rode horses back, although they were bit shaky.
Godamn bikers, not even safe on our bridleways now......
Horses very unsettled and will now have to be ridden past bikes to get their confidence back. Had to close up early because it wasn't fair on horse or rider to carry on hacking today, as all were shaky. Police are doubtful they can do anything. Typical.
Idiots, I do despise bikers who ride on pavements and bridleways..........
