As per the title really. Had a great day.

The route was fab, the water half way a brilliant idea, friendly helpful stewards and to top it all off great weather...

Well done and roll on 2012!
 
Another massive thank you from me and Trevor,
Such a great day, fantastic route, thoughtful watering hole for ponies and rider half way round, I cannot praise the hard work and organisation that when in to today enough!!!
Will definately be back next year xx
 
Ditto what snoball said, a big thankyou from me and syrus aswell was a great day and very grateful for the half way water for both horses and riders, i will also be back next yr :)
 
I think you are not a million miles away from me - where, exactly? I am thinking that by this time next year I might be ready to have a go!!? ;)
 
Aw, you are all making me feel emotional now!!! Lots of people say thanks at the ride, but I dont normally hear from people afterwards! Just had a lovely phone call from a loady who done it to say thank you!! I am now sitting at home waiting for my KFC to arrive,.... i dont think i could look at another burger or sausage!!!
 
I hope you ordered a big bucket cause you deserve it!!
Will see if I can gets Sysmum to put up a pic as well. xx

The girls doing the sign ins were lovely and very polite ! I wasn't sure what to expect with a couple of teens(?) but they had everything under control and were very organised ! Thank you for a lovely hack i was on the big, big bay that looks like a tank ! But thanks again the route was lovely esp. godinton park ! Thanks Benson21 :)
 
Another thankyou from me too. It was a nice ride. Only hair raising part was coming alongside where the trains run as both mine and my friends horse have never seen one before. Luckily we got past without the train coming through though and we had an otherwise great ride. I hope the lady who was marshalling at the cattle grid going onto the bit where we crossed the road was ok. Please pass on my apologies for my horse nearly squashing her and thank her for helping me across.(I'm sure she will remember me as I had the naughty pink pony who really didn't appreciate crossing the grid) I have only heard positive comments from everyone who went so Well done on all your hard work. It was a great day for all.
Here are a couple of pics of me and my friend and a couple of random riders who I have no idea were.

Thanks again Benson for such a fab ride.

It was lovely to meet you and the sooooo gorgeous little Donovan - wow!!! He is just stunning :D

I would have liked to have met a few of the other HHO'ers, but I think because we started late they had all gone - maybe next year?

I guess as you are now 'on line' that you finally got the lady with the dark horse loaded - it started to look a bit scarey once he started rearing - I'm such a wimp :)

Bless her thats my mum! She loves sitting out there, and was very chuffed with herself to be helping a horse across the grid, I have heard all about it! Then theres my OH running around in his 4x4, (and a police car rather interestingly!) and my brilliant dad who is like masterchef on the BBQ!! we had such a good day with 157 riders joining us, and we are donating £2000 to The Kent Air Ambulance, taking our total to £11,800, something I am very very proud of!
So thank you all for your support, and I hope you all come back next year! (cant actually believe I am thinking of next years ride already!!!!)
