I just did the AA route finder and its just over an hour away from me so I may come and watch.It's doubtfull that I will be fit enough to ride but if things change I will let you know.
 
I'm having trouble finding transport

I know of 3 people that could possibly do it, one is at a show all weekend, one os busy and the other one i cant get hold of and think they have changed their number!!

I am trying though, i am looking into hiring something now.

Didn't think getting transport would be so hard

It's not that simple unfortunately.I'm still not allowed to ride

so unless I get the all clear beforehand and there is time to get my horse fit enough then I will just have to come and watch.
 
yah-ooo. Its been nigh on 20 years since i did xcountry!

(the week before we are mock hunting, so hopefully will be running on adrenelin and fully intact!)
 
I’m going to send you a PM, but I wondered if Me and GinaGem could tag along? We would just be bringing Gem between the two of us.

We are in Maidstone, so we are probably about an hour away.

Oh poo, I wish I had a ned to come and play. I use to love going there, me and my mare used to lead the baby neds over the jumps and then go play over the biggies. Have a great day!!

Maybe us Fawkham area based bods could see how much a lorry and driver would be??

[/ QUOTE ]

That sounds like a good idea to me as i am having so much trouble getting transport!! Its just me and my friend though so dont want to pay out huge amounts for a horsebox if its just the two of us.
 
I dont mind hiring a lorry and driver as long as its not more expensive than we'd pay for our yo's lorry (£30 each i think) as i am seriously short on ££ as looked through show schedules last night and am planning to be out 5 times between now and end of april! Going to be an expensive 2 months!

Well if it is a 4 horse box then that will be £120 in total, surely thats enough??

Will look into it!!

Do you know any local transporters??

No, our yo lorry is 2 horse - or one fat beast/one little pony!

Sorry i didn't make myself very clear

I meant if all pay £30 (£120 in total) then surely that would be enough to hire a 4 horse box??

My horse is physco!! But thankfully only when your on her. She is good as gold to travel
smile.gif
 
JoBo - I might see if I can get transport as well - not that I'd jump anything/much; I'd spend the whole time trying to defuse her probably!
 
I cant wait I am soooo excited and scared!!!!

But will be great fun, cant wait to meet you all and your horses. Is anyone good for xc leads? My boy will jump anything but it is me that gets chicken : (
