I was so impressed with the hard core parents watching their offspring ride in -2c tonight❄️ that I made them hot chocolate.
I must be getting soft in my old age😂

Please share

On this dark winter snowy night this is good opportunity to remind you about winter riding and cancellations.
If you’re willing to ride, I’m always up for teaching😀
If you’re concerned about the weather, please keep an eye on the weather apps, you can cancel a lesson up to 24hrs before hand if you don’t want to ride or travel.
Unfortunately, I have to charge £1.50 on refunds to cover my PayPal fees.

I’ve ridden in ALL conditions during my time in racing, I do understand that it’s your hobby, but it’s also my income.
I often book freelance grooms to cover my yard work or when hiring venues pay in advance.

And if the weather apps are wrong, you can always message me in the morning to see if I’ve got availability on the same day.

Oh, and I never cancel because of lack of bookings or it’s not convenient.
The only reason that I will cancel is if the arena is frozen, I’ve lost my voice or a family emergency.
So you can rest assured, if you’ve booked it will 99% go ahead.
And if I do cancel, you’ll get a full refund😀

Photo below was taken in July 2019 of a very young Harriet determined not to miss her lesson
So even Summer riding can be wet!
