    I rode with Sandy Bottom Trail Rides on the 4th of July with a group of 10 as part of a bachelorette party. We had the BEST time ever! We felt safe the entire time and thoroughly riding on their beautiful property. Bella was the highlight of our day - we absolutely loved chatting with her as we rode!
