The Platte River Riders is an opportunity to trail ride with other adults! Just meet at the pre-designated trail each Wednesday evening for up to a three hour ride. There are no dues or trail bosses. Whoever is there should be saddled & ready to ride out at 6:30 PM.  Rides start in early April and will conclude the 2nd week in September. 

Why Just Adults?  As a parent, I am lucky that my children enjoy riding with my husband and me. As a busy working adult and full time mom, sometimes its nice to take off the "mother hat" and put on my riding helmet. It's a nice break to catch, load, trailer & saddle only one horse and ride with friends. We want to give you that opportunity, too. At the end of the season, we plan a family ride. Until then, lets be selfish & save Wednesdays for ourselves -- the grown-ups!
