A group of us met at Brackenridge for a trail ride. There is a 12 mile trail for horses. The trail just opened up this summer.

 | so did you like the trail? how was the ride? |
 | The trails are great, wide enough in most places to ride 3 abreast, good footing, grass that is mowed, some rough spots, but no holes or ditches or such. Very little cover though, so on a sunny day you would be out in the heat. The scenery is nice, but very flat. You know you are in "rice country". I would go again if the weather was cool-not if it was hot. The LL's have almost changed their name to the WW (Walking Women) {giggle} but it was a fun ride. The women were all nice and there were no fireworks! |
 | It was a nice ride. Glad y'all could make it. I didn't even notice you were riding in Rob's old saddle LOL. Shiloh is a pretty girl!!! Venice and Annie did great for their first trail ride!!! |
 | Glad you all had a great ride!! Hope I can make the next one... |
 | Glad the trail was nice and you all did find. Looks like a nice place to ride except for the rocks, would be nice if the trailers had some grass also to park on. |
 | I would like to try that if it's not too far...I don't camp..but maybe on a nice cool day with an early start? |
 | It was a great time!!! Can't wait to do it again!! |
 | Who all showed up? I would have loved to go but I did have a great time at the Ren Fest. |
 | Yes, it was a very nice ride. There was 14 riders for Saturday. Linda B, bKoy, Haley, Tiff, Lori, Rob, Ann B, Cindy, Vencie, Terry, Cindy T, and a friend. Later Dawn, her niece, and aunt came. |
 | Oh, yeah, Gail and Donie. There were actually more than 14. |
 | Yeah, I was gonna point it out, but we got off on a different topic. It is my #1 saddle! Thanks for the compliment on Shiloh. She can be a real mare though! |
 | Sounds like it would best to ride during spring/fall/winter months, when the sun isn't too overbearing. I wouldn't want to camp there, but a day ride would be nice. I like that they are really working to make that a nice equestrian facility... cause we just can't have too many of those. |
 | I agree, Ginger. The equestrian campsites are lacking a lot!, but the pipe stalls are convenient to the campsite, and I think they are trying to upgrade as they see usage. I heard via rumors that LNRA was disappointed in the usage, but we have had such a wet summer that they have not been open/accessible for many weekends during the summer. In addition, the fact that they close on Sun. is a hamper for me. Sundays are my "free" days. |
 | Gosh... this looks like an awful lot of fun.! Lucky you to have so many people to ride with.. :-) |
