I just got a trailer, my first one. I've been riding less than two years, but bought some propoerty in March and now have two horses here. I am interested in doing as much trail riding as I can. Unfortunately, I don't have anyone to go out with right now.  If anyone knows someone who might want to go out with me in this area, I"d be happy to hear about it. Especially I'd love to find someone who knows how to trailer and could help me get the hang of it!  Is anyone out there who'd be willing to help/go riding with a newbie?  Thanks!

Hi Bella

If you go to www.intrailrider.org  you can follow a link or  send a blank email to  indianatrailriders-subscribe@groups   Both of these will get you to the EdGe  Its a equine discussion group based in Indiana and most, but not all on it are members of the Indiana Trail Riders.  Great group if I do say so myself.  You might want to join yourself as you are looking to ride and keep the trails we have around for awhile.

If you need more info PM me

PS

we have alot of members from up north that would love to ride with you!!!

Hi, Anp.

Thanks for your response! I've been to Potato Creek, in fact went over yesterday in my first attempt to haul my appy.  My brother came over from Ohio to help me and so far so good. 

I've also been to Russ Forest. Do you know Bluestone Ridge, very near Russ Forest? I really like it. More diverse area.  I've driven to the other place you mentioned, but haven't ridden there. 

Is there someway we can continue emailing privately?  I thought I saw a way to do that on this site, but can't find it now.  I'd love to set up a time to meet up with you. I'm confident at this point that I could get my appy to Potato Creek, but it would be great to have someone to meet up with there. After I haul him nearby a few times on my own, I think I'd feel confident to take him a little further away.

Do you have people to ride with nearer to you?

It's so darn hot now, though.
