Hi! I'm going on a weeklong horseback riding tour in Ireland this Sept. through FITS EQUETRIAN. Has anyone gone on one of these? Any advice as to what to bring, what to expect, etc. We'll be covering 150 miles in 6 days (5-6 hrs. a day). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

1001.1 | It does rain in Ireland. | SMAUG::GUNN | MAILbus Conductor | Sat Jul 15 1989 11:58 | 10 |
A riding raincoat - or plan to buy one while you get there! While the weather in Ireland (and in the rest of the British Isles) can be magnificent in September, it can also be cold and wet. On one of my trips to Europe I bought an all enveloping plastic riding raincoat that folded up into a 8 by 10 inch carrying bag. I bought it in Germany but it was made in France by the same folk who make the rubber riding boots (Ecuyer/Aigle/Stylo). Have fun! | |||||
1001.2 | State Line | FRAGLE::PELUSO | Tue Jul 18 1989 09:49 | 10 | |
State line Has a yellow slicker which covers you and your tack and has some extra snaps to wear it different ways (don't ask me, I couldn't figure it out). It costs about $15.00. Worth the investment (we go on some weekend trail rides in Vermont and the weather is always changing) If you want the 800 number and ordering number I'll be happy to post it for you. Michele |
