Bishop
Jan and Sarah are no strangers to the sport of endurance riding! Jan is
the Ride Organiser of the Camel Valley Ride and has kindly agreed to
support Sarah and her husband, Tristan as they take over running the popular Boconnoc
Ride. Preparations are well underway and although the winter watershed
has caused some minor problems in Deerpark Forestry, Tristan is on the
case - Sarah has said that compared to riding on Exmoor, there are no
worries at Boconnoc!
