You missed a great ride if you didn’t join us for the adventure at Diamond D. Several members and friends gathered at the Diamond D power lines and headed out on a three hour adventure. Our purpose was to scout out the proposed route for our Second Annual Fall Poker Ride (Oct 30th.) We rode in the “three bridges” area of Jennings… everyone made it across all three bridges and survived the deer flies that are still hanging around waiting for attack. The first leg of our route went through a stand of pines, and all of the horses were stomping and swishing in an attempt to keep the bugs away. When we came to a nice wide sandy trail, Lisa’s horse Storm decided he had had enough and laid down to get the bugs off his belly. In her graceful style Lisa bailed off and then climbed back aboard for the rest of the adventure. We rode out on the Yellow Trail (originates at Live Oak Trail Head) and then looped back into the woods and came back over the bridges. There was a decent breeze most of the way and the sun was blocked by passing clouds, so all in all it was decent riding weather. We are definitely looking forward to cooler weather for the Poker Ride. Click here to see pictures of the ride! Click here to see more pictures!
