Why am i in disguise?

Racing sounds a bit like hard work as ive got used to plodding for hours like a beardy freak now.....can that be my excuse or shall i come up with a better one the night before?

I remember how late you were for Shepherds Skyline last time....we very nearly missed the start!....can you believe that was 2007???

INVITE TO FELL PONYS;NEW RACE - Heptonstall Festival - Saturday July 9th - AS (6 miles / 1500 feet)
Following the success of Heptonstall Fell Race in March a group of Calder Valley and Todmorden Harriers based in Heptonstall have been asked to put on a fell race for Heptonstall Festival. The challenging route starts with a quick run up the cobbles to the top of the village, followed by a steep descent to the Blue Pig. After the steady ascent to High Brown Knoll you turn tail and head back the way you came. Race starts at 11.00; Village gala, food stalls, music, and beer kick off at 12.00. Should be a great day out. Entry on the day (£4). Large car parking field (£1). Full details and map; www.heptonstallfestivalrace.org.uk It would be great if Fell Ponys could join us – see you on July 9th ?

MMmm - what if we offered a Heptonstall Festival special prize/trophy for 1st male & female Fell Pony?

Looks good to me - not too far for a recovering pony and a watering hole at the end :thumbup:

That's far more than most ponies have run full stop, keeps your eyes open for meets and vests, try short stuff to begin with and just enjoy this fine sport we have ignore the elite runners they just make us feel inadequate and don't follow ponies with beards they are very weird, we are a club with no rules at all which pi$$e$ a few off but hey, we are a very friendly bunch (as most are) again ENJOY try the web site at ukfellponies for out of date info, and beware some ponies speak with a funny accent sounds a bit like abooooooooooyt mooooootin i don't fully understand but Steve foster (merrylegs has) discovered the translation side of that!
