HI everyone, I'm new on here. I was wondering how far you travel to your yard? Would you go further for off road hacking and a sand school?
thanks everyone, it seems a few owners have to travel quite a long way. I am looking at a 12 mile journey. QUOTE]
Ours were on a friend's farm for about three months over the summer before we moved here. It was at least 12 miles, depending on whether you chose busy main roads or winding quieter ones. Because YO was a friend, and the horses were out 24/7 we only needed to visit once a day, which felt odd. I certainly wouldn't have wanted to travel so far for an extended period, especially as work was in a completely different direction.
It was a relief to bring them home, the week after we moved here. Now there is no travelling at all!
We have no school, although there a couple to hire that we can hack to, and the hacking is a reasonable mix of roadwork and off-road. Fortunately there are so many horses round here that the majority of drivers are used to us and drive carefully.
