  • Horse Around 28
    Free to Members No. 28 Spring 2010 Straight from the horse’s mouth In This Bumper Issue Hello Everyone Gwallon Bridleway Opened Another Christmas has come and gone and we are already a TREC comes to the far South West quarter of the way through 2010. The years seem to be flashing by. Our traditional Christmas Cracker ride was well Carnyorth Common Update supported and the Get Together at the Engine Inn was also a Steel Horse News and Trails very sociable evening. Now we are looking at the AGM Horse Hike Reports coming up already. It’s been a tough winter but we have got Horse Hike Programme off more lightly in the far southwest. We just got rain, rain and more rain whilst up country got the white stuff. The horses ‘ploughed the fields and splattered the good grass off the land. and more … But they’ve been fed and watered by our unstinting hand.’ (apologies to the hymn!) Now with the recent dry weather the poached ground has set like concrete. Every bridleway and track continued to be as bad as ever under hoof. Horse hikes had to be cancelled but recently, we have had some lucky breaks to run a few good rides in reasonable weather. Chapel Carn Brea, Great Flat Lode, and a new venue at Marazion brought out a lot of riders. The recently opened new Gwallon bridleway will enable Marazion to become a regular ride. An informal Trec competition took place on the last day of February with a crash course and demo in the morning before real action in the afternoon.
