Every year in NC, horse riders form groups like bike clubs and have certain days throughout the spring and summer to go on different trails. This is day one of 2013.

Nice pics, but I notice that most of the horses are well lathered. They must be pushed pretty hard. :D

You captured some beautiful shots. I like the one of the handsome little guy on the horse the best.

Photos are very good However it looks to me like these people don't know how to properly look after a horse or ride correctly Just my opinion Horses are skinny,sweated right up and if they pull any harder on the bits it will be up around there ears Don't mean to be rude but this is how I see it sorry.

I addition, it doesn't look like anyone is having a good time. These horses look like they came from a rent string that a group of people took out for a couple of hours.

That said, you documented it well.

I'm glad you like the way they were captured, I personally don't know much about horses, so you definitely see things I didn't. Of the few people I knew out there they did own their own horses, for the rest, I honestly don't know. Once again, glad you like the photos.
