Ou Ryperd
Race Dog
I couldn't wait to get out of the office last week Friday. I was on my way to Kings Mountain, Level 2 off road course, and I was soooooo looking forward to it. We were a nice group, 6 on course of which Ratel, Adventurer, Peaches & me are from the WD forum. Rika & Liz were the other two.
The ride there was uneventful, thanks to Ratel & Sanrelene for joining us. We arrived @ Kings Mountain 17:00'ish, all nervous but with big expectations. Stephen was our instructor with Aldo his assistant. Mark & Dot were wonderful hosts, and everything was what we expected.
Saturday am we started 06:30 with a full day of excercises. I can't remember the order, but we did zig-zag cones, up & down hills, down hill stopping, step up & down, emergency braking @ 90+ km/h, rocky up & downs, sand/ploughed land riding, ruts, plus an outride.
Some pictures. I'm sure the rest will post theirs as well.
