GVBCH Poker Ride 2011

Here are some photos from this years GVBCH Poker Ride at Bridger Bowl, Montana; as usual I had a great time and even won a few prizes this year! We had a great little group as the Pre-Ride Crew (to make sure the trail was free and clear before competitors rode) and the little colt, Diamond City Mike, that I was riding did excellent.

I have 60 days on this little guy and he was one of the best horses on the ride! We did lots of walking, jogging, trotting and cantering using loose reins and even asking for collection at times all the while we were in a group or we would hold back and ride solo, working on not being herd bound and having self-confidence! Big strides for this little guy and another notch under his belt. He will make someone a great partner some day! Thanks to Spalding-Laboratories for their support, without companies like them and all the other great sponsors that we had we could not make this event work!

See ya next year at Bridger Bowl
