The Bice Family is very passionate about their horse-riding, daughter Tori wrote an inspiring post on her Facebook talking about her achievements for 2015 (see part of it below) and wondering what 2016. That will bring – well Tori 2016 is going to be as wonderful as last year.
We all wish you the best of luck – Ride safe!
“What a year 2015 has been! I set out with a goal of doing the big 4 (Tom Quilty, Shahzada 400, State Championships AND HSC) and although not completely successful. I’m happy with my results.
In my first year as a lightweight, I rode 3 different horses. My own girl The Byzantine Diamonds (Amber), Raymar Aden for Emma Broome and Webbs Creek Cattle Baron (Dave) owned by Jennifer Gilbertson.
Although I didn’t complete, I made it to Leg 4 (148km) at my first attempt at a Quilty.
I was third time lucky at Shahzada 400km marathon and completed my second NSW state championships in very hot conditions.
