Tissy LOVES an outing so I was more than happy to accompany Izzy and Fluffy on their first ever Pleasure ride. They’ve done lots of social rides but of course a Pleasure ride comes with the addition of a trot up and a maximum speed to think about.
The Foremark ride was lovely, thank you to the organisers, helpers and volunteers for a great day, made even lovelier with the sunshine. The route rode well and in such contrast to two weeks ago where everything was boggy, the ground was already hardening up.
Foremark is a mixture of woods, headland, quiet lanes, track and grass which makes for an interesting ride with lots of variation. Izzy and Fluffy did great and we had fun enjoying the countryside….as a seasoned endurance rider I probably should have tempered our speed a little across the whole course, but Tissy was having fun so we did have to walk the final 4km to keep us under the 12kph maximum speed.
