of work and rewards for competitors and organisers and we&#8217;ll celebrate that in due course.<\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s always a fun side to South Notts, and we had a perfect pony morning with a group ride over a beautiful local estate.\u00a0 We run several of these over the summer, our members ride over lovely countryside in a group then all stop for a picnic afterwards.\u00a0 There&#8217;s fun and friendship and the members learn to ride over different terrain, and occasionally the mums get their feet wet.<\/p>\n<p>Our thanks to everyone that makes this possible.<\/p>\n
