What a day for our End of Summer Amble with the High Peak Harriers!

A fabulous turnout with over 30 riders joining us and embracing everything the Derbyshire Dales - and the British weather - had to throw at them!

We had some fantastic jumping, plenty of good canters and a brilliant group of riders making the most of the route.

A huge thank you to E W Coates Butchers for supplying the meat for the delicious BBQ on our return, the perfect way to finish the day.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and made it such a fantastic afternoon. If you joined us, drop your pics in the comments.

We hope to see you all again soon🐎
