Sue you can test all your recipes out on me if you like !
I've just had a look at the map for Cannock and I can't work out if the route is very different from the old egb/bera ride. Do you know if there are many changes? I hope not as Cannock has always be notorious for marker vandalism and getting lost |

Hi Rachel, got a couple of new recipes to test, Chocholate and black cherry, taste very similar to Blackforest and a normal sponge with Cream & lemon. I've made 6 cakes, 3 of each, we've eaten/tested two and I prefer the lemon..but the black cherry is OK to..
So you'll have to catch up with Cliff, he'll be holding and eating( if I know him) the reserves.
Don't panic about the route, I'm told it rides very well and Di & Steve are out there now in this lovely sunshine, marking and feel happy that there will be folks out on the course on saturday patrolling on bikes. Hope you have a good ride, hope to catch you between crews & vettings and I thought it was only me that got lost on the chase...

hi everyone
I often read the messages on this site so I thought it was about time I joined in!!
Anyway I hope to see some of you at Cannock ride as I will be crewing for my sister, Sebi riding Serabitibi and a friend Gemma riding Dakota Willow. Looking forward to the ride and hoping Rabit copes well with her first endurance ride.

OOh Sue they sound yummy. Tell Cliff that he's got competition on Saturday! Thanks for the ride info as well and yes I do get lost but specialize in getting lost at Cirencester most of all so will hopefully get around the Chase!
Andrea I hope to see you . I'll be number 3 on a dark bay arab. If you see me riding along give me a shout

yes Sue, I think you found the photos of Rabit, she wasn't very photogenic on that day but she was brilliant on the ride!! Kevin is not riding her at Cannock. I have told him he needs to lose weight if he wants to compete her!!! Went down well!! No cake for him! he will be helping out though.
Really looking forward to tomorrow.See you,

Sorry if I've missed this but is there also a PR at Cannock Chase? Not that I'm going - mine are nothing like fit yet - but a friend is going and I'm rather hoping, for the sake of her horse, that she's not doing the 32km ride.

Sue once again you're making the descriptions of the ride lovely with your photos to show what it's actually like! Lovely weekend too - I hope you've all had a wonderful time. I have a friend riding a youngster today so will be catching up with her on how everyone gets on.

Had a lovely day at Cannock. Very eventful too. Started well first thing saturday morning Rabit had lost a shoe. Ride went really well. rabit very excited on her first endurance ride and heart rate was high. She loved the ride and coped well. Stablemate, Willow, her usual laidback self, gained another Grade 1 and is qualified to do Open now, well done Gemma. Getting home was a bit tricky as Sebi's dog Millie locked us out of the car!! Had to wait for RAC. Lorry needed a jump start ( many thanks to the people who helped us out there!) Karl and Gemma got their lorry well and truly stuck in the mud! ( thankyou so much to the very helpful man who towed it out with his lorry and all the people who pushed, very much appreciated). Thankyou to the organisers and helpers at the ride. We will certainly remember it!
looking forward to seeing photos,
Andrea |

Lovely photos thanks Sue and good to see you and Rose out and about again. I thought it was very well marked particularly with the sawdust markers and it rode faster than the old route. Many thanks to all those who worked so hard to put this ride back on the calendar. I hope to be back next year.
