Report & Results:

ILDRA were delighted with the fine turnout of riders and horses for the recent Charity ride at Tollymore. This was in support of Mourne Mountain Rescue and over eighty riders took part. It was a good day for a hack with no rain and reasonably good temperatures. Judging by the feedback from those who took part, a good day was had by all. ILDRA would like to thank sincerely all participants for their support of a very worthy and necessary cause.
