We are pleased to announce that the 2011 Newmarket Ride has raised over £17,000 so far for Macmillan Cancer Support and would like to thank everyone who took part and worked so hard to get sponsors. We would also like to thank the Jockey Club and the National Stud for their continued support and assistance, and of course, all the volunteers, without whom the Ride could not take place. We had over 350 entries and 260 riders on the day - a day which turned out to be perfect ‘sponsored ride’ weather, apart from some late rain which didn’t seem to affect anyone’s enthusiasm. This year’s Ride Winners (those who raised the most sponsor money) were:- TEAM WINNER -TEAM HONEYCHOP 2nd Team winner - Team Limborne 3rd Team winner - The Blondes SENIOR INDIVIDUAL WINNER -SUE ALLEN 2nd Individual winner - MARGARET EVERETT 3rd Individual winner - TONI HODGE JUNIOR INDIVIDUAL WINNER -ELLA CAIRNS 2nd Junior winner - Emily Purbick The date and time of the Prize Giving is 11.30am, 26th November at Presents Galore at the Rowley Mile Racecourse, Newmarket This link will take you to some random photographs taken by Michael Smithson - he has very kindly offered to email any to interested riders! http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150284992797655.343584.720442654&l=953eac7bf4&type=1 THE DATE OF THE NEXT RIDE IS SUNDAY 2nd SEPTEMBER 2012 As the Heath closes at 4.30, it is vital that everyone completes their chosen distance by that time, so if you are planning to do the 20 mile ride, please try and enter well in advance, so that you can secure an early time slot. As we are trying to provide more information and downloadable forms on the web site in 2012, we would welcome any suggestions or ideas. Please email us!
