What's a Hunter Pace?
It's a fox hunt where you can ride at a speed that suits you because there is no fox being hunted. If you prefer, you can think of it as a long, fun trail ride where you follow marked signs through our beautiful woods & fields.

Teams of 2 to 5 riders will compete. If you don't have a team you will be assigned one. Winning teams will be those closest to the Official Pace Time. Results will be posted on our website & ribbons will be mailed to the first rider listed for that team.  

 

Divisions  

Strollers:
pace - 4 mph, course - 3 to 5 miles
This is a relaxed stroll through MacNair's newly opened trails, fields and scenic countryside.
Hilltoppers:
pace - 6 mph, course - 5 to 6 miles
This is a more forward, sporty ride with optional jumps. Natural ditches & streams are mandatory.
First Flight:
pace - 8 mph, course - 6 to 7 miles
The countryside will pass by more quickly. Jumps are optional but natural ditches & streams are mandatory.

If you'd rather walk, after the last group of riders goes out, everyone is invited to take to the trails on foot. Leashed dogs are welcome. They don't even have to be foxhounds.
