Does it exist?!

If so when is it?!

and how do you go about entering etc???

If there is one and its next summer thats what i want to aim my cob at next year, he's only 3 now, but i want to set a target and if its a sponsored ride i can go my own pace!

Thanks
 
You've just missed it - it was last month. It's always widely advertised - usually in Horse and Hound as well. You have a choice of 3 distances to ride. You will need to get a fair amount of sponsorship if you're not going to pay the whole entry yourself. If you are outside the area and want overnight stabling, we are a fully licensed yard (10 minutes drive from the ride).

My horse was quite excited to start as getting straight onto a big grass field was a bit much for her lol but to start you get an option of just doing a walk/trot route and then joining the main route, or you can get straight onto the walk/trot/canter route. We took the walk trot just to get the ponies a bit more chilled
