Riding Resource – A Stable Place to Search

So for the past year and a half I have been working on a secret project. Long story short, I’ve started a business.
“The Project” is almost live. We’ve finalized a design with Hustlewood and will be launching shortly. I’d really appreciate it if you would Follow us on Twitter for updates and advance-notice of our site launch and/or check out the Riding Resource page on Facebook to learn more and become a fan.
I registered the Riding Resource, LLC business name on Saturday, got an EIN/Tax ID number (which happens to end in 127 which is my lucky number!) and a GA sales tax ID. As of November 15, 2008, I am officially a business owner. Woot!
What exactly is Riding Resource you ask? Well, read on!
Riding Resource is the only fully-searchable online database of 12,000+ riding

DMGGMASD and Gizmo.

I’ve been super insanely unhealthy busy lately, so I’ll make this short.
We (DGTrials) did a super-secret exclusive private event at Nashville SuperSpeedway last weekend for the DriftMechaniks guys. The event was absolutely awesome and everyone averaged about eleventy billion runs. I don’t know who decided it, but the theme was “prep school elite” and the event’s official title was “DriftMechaniks Gossip Girl Marathon and Some Drifting”. Needless to say, it was pretty funny watching everyone run around in khakis and argyle sweater vests while playing with racecars 😉
I voted last Tuesday for the very first time, which was not at all as exciting as I thought it’d be. It was actually pretty cold and somewhat boring. But, it was worth it. Funny thing to note: there were some people selling hot chocolate for $1 (we went at 7:00am) and a few minutes later another group of people showed up handing out *free*
hot chocolate. Ah, competition at it’s best. Thanks, America!
My past two lessons at Huntcliff I’ve ridden this lovely dark bay hunter named Gizmo. He’s pretty much a pro and it’s so nice to ride a horse where I can concentrate on my riding and not fighting the horse. It goes something like this-
Me: Hey Gizmo, let’s jump these fences over here, okay?
Gizmo: Sure, let’s go! You just sit up there and look pretty while I do the rest.
I *love* this horse 🙂
A lot of progress has been made with “The Project” lately. I’ll post more on that in a few days. If all goes well, this will be my ticket to paying off my loans and finally being able to ride more than once a week (maybe even buy my own horse?!). Keep your fingers crossed everyone!!
