NO PLANS TO RIDE THE YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE IN 2015!

January 2015

 

January has been a nice and easy month for us.   I had a lovely Christmas and New Year with family and friends relaxing and eating far too much.   I was very spoilt and it was great to just chill out, it also gave me the perfect time to reflect on 2014 the good bits and the bad bits and make plans for 2015. 



Yorkshire Air Ambulance arrives in the arena

First and foremost this year I need to try and avoid a ride in the air ambulance the day before my first event of season.  Back in March 2014 I was riding a horse belonging to a client, which proceeded to bury me head first.  Early diagnosis suggested I had suspected broken neck/back but thankfully it was less serious and with 2 months off I just about managed to get back in the saddle in time for Badminton.  I still suffer a little from the effects of the fall, but Im grateful to have made a good recovery all considered.

Last year was a phenomenal year for me with success I only used to dream of!  Im hoping that 2015 will be just as good and with lots of learning and training I plan to work twice as hard to fulfil all my ambitions.

I feel so lucky to have such amazing owners, awesome horses, great sponsors and above all the support of you guys, 2015 is going to be one heck of a ride...
