ICU Riding Club

19 Mar 1997 — 1 min read

ICU Riding Club is a fun and active club. We go riding every Wednesday to either Belmont Riding School, or to Trent Park Equestrian Centre, both in North London.

A wide range of activities, such as jumping, hacking and polo are available, and all levels of riders are welcome, from complete beginners to old pros.

All club members are entitled to subsidised lessons, which work out at about Ł8 per time. Annual membership of the club is Ł12. No expensive equipment is required as hard hats and riding crops are available at the stables, so all you need is a pair of jeans, solid shoes with heels, and a sense of adventure!

We are a friendly, sociable club, with weekly meetings on Thursday lunchtimes, at 1.15pm, in Southside Upper Lounge. And the Riding Club parties are legendary..
