About

The Junior Riders Distance Derby is a year long competition where you GPS your ride for mileage and compete virtually with other riders in the same competition.  Any equine, any time, any speed. 

The purpose of this game is to encourage juniors to not only get out and ride but enable them to see how many other junior riders there truly are.  Often times juniors show up at ride camp finding themselves surrounded by old people, or miraculously maybe one other junior will show up.  This can discourage them.  I want them to know there are so many other kids out there riding with mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, or the random sponsor that has pulled them along with them.

This game is not just for endurance juniors.  There are many juniors out there that for whatever reason can't get to an actual ride.  This is for them too.  So they can gain a feeling of accomplishment and a tad bit of competition.

So look at your calendar.  Look at your horses, or friend's horses, or neighbor's horses, or whatever horse you can get your hands on lol.  Make REALISTIC goals! And get riding!!!
