VTRC #15 is OPEN!!!

What is a Virtual Trail Rider Challenge?
It is the most fun you can have practicing and learning with your horse from home. Well, at least that is my opinion.
Put your SIMPLE TRAIL OBSTACLES to use! We give you the pattern, you set it up, practice, and submit a video.
Then, we judge your ride, give you written feed back and send you a ribbon.
It's really pretty cool. You can even do this with barn buddies, students, friends or family.
If you would like to learn more (rules, price, etc) - click here: www.VirtualTrailRiderChallenge.com​

Hopefully, you will find this pattern fun. It reviews many of the skills and obstacles we have used this year. ~ Enjoy!
Lite In-Hand AT LIBERTY CLASS - Anyone can enter. You are still eligible for all other In-Hand classes. Sunday I will be recording some video to help you out. It should be posted Monday or Tuesday.
AT LIBERTY - means no halter. I recommend a neck rope. Will discuss in video.
Also this Challenge:
BASIC riders may complete Basic course and ride up a level to give TRAIL RIDER a try. Regular Trail Riders may not ride down a level in Basic.
