Rider Rights
Riders have Rights
It's vitally important that riders know and maintain their Rights of
Way.
If we dont know and maintain our Rights of Way, we will have less and less
land on which to ride.
The problem is knowing our Rights of Way
If you are uncertain or have any queries about your Rights of Way e-mail the Horseytalk.net Rights of Way Hotline BobMilton@ horseytalk.net. He will tell you your Rights
NO EXCUSES. YOU MUST WATCH THIS FILM.
You must also show it to anyone
concerned
with horses and road safety
