Hi Stephanie,
Where in Jax are you? I'm on the Northwest side of town (Jones road area). Although I am VERY new to the sport, I am always looking for someone else to ride with. Right now I'm limited on transportation (gotta horse, but no truck/trailer) but I do board where there are lots of trails to ride on!
I have a 7 year old Paso Fino that I've just started conditioning. We did one 25 mile ride last year, but it's been a zoo in 2001 and I was not able to do a whole lot of riding. I mean to fix that this year!! I won't be at the Jennings Boogie for that reason :(
Anyway, if you don't mind working with a relative newbie too, give me a yell! Hope to hear from you.
