Nope, not exactly the best footing... Photo via TSAS Combined Test Committee.
Rain, rain, go away…because I’d really like to be riding somewhere besides the indoor today! My first event of the season, a two-phase hosted by the University of New Hampshire (UNH), was supposed to be this weekend, but it unfortunately had to be cancelled due to the condition of the grounds. It’s a bummer, but it’s definitely a wise call. We had so much rain and snowmelt over the past week and a half that the arenas are in no condition to be ridden on at the moment! Here’s hoping that ground dries up a bit before UNH’s recognized horse trials – the official start of the Area 1 season – in a couple weeks!
