lurcher330 2,301 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 brings back memories that,the garda made it worse ,never liked them races on two roads much better on a dual carriage way where the followers block the traffic from behind ,much less dangerous ,over in 2 mile and the rest of the traffic can carry on.i was once racing P Casey on the N 7and a speedie came up a long side me and tried to take the reins while i was trotting a 30 odd mph ,the fcuker could of killed us both maybe JUST FECKIN MAYBE you shouldnt have been on the road racing ................fucks sake them days are well past me now pal ,i was around 16 at the time i know better now but as i said the fcuker could of killed us both , funny how you think it's HIS fault.....who was creating the danger in the first place??? there was no danger until he got involved ,but as i said i know better now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lurcher330 2,301 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 badly orginised that race we normily just block the motorway of for a few mile Doesn't that seem like something only a selfish mong would do? What's so important about getting dragged along by a horse that you can hold up people going to hospital, work or just wanting to get home? What's wrong with an old runway or something? horse has as much right on the road as anybody driving a car not on a motorway it doesn't. it wasn't a motor way i said the N 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 If a police car pulled up next to the horse, shot it, and carried on driving, I wonder if the racing might stop. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What's so important about getting dragged along by a horse that you can hold up people going to hospital, work or just wanting to get home? What's wrong with an old runway or something? horse has as much right on the road as anybody driving a car I don't think so, nor does a car driving 30mph on a motorway have any reason being there. If your horse can keep up with the traffic and is as reliable as a car then it wouldn't be a problem to anyone. But horses are skittish and slow buggers, the only time they should be on a road is in the back of a lorry going to a glue factory. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lurcher330 2,301 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I was road racing my 3/4 bred from the time she was about 2 1/2 until she was around 5 and i the one i was on about it was her 2nd race ,so that would of being 1993 which would of actually only made me 12 coming 13 but what that copper done was just making a dangerous situation a lot more dangerous ,another time when we where setting up for a race the police pulled and they escorted us to the new (at the time)kilcock bypass that was still being build and told us to work away,btw when i gave up racing her i start riding her doing cross country and hunts and a small bit of show jumping (once i got her to canter from the take off)but that was when i started to grow up ,if i thought my kids where at that game i would take their horse off them,but they still use my 22 year old 3/4 bred ex road racer riding and driving so i think they will get much racing out of her Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ratreeper 441 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Lads would you think the same about a hunt with loads of horses and hounds blocking roads When has anyone chased a fox down a dual carriageway? Nevermind on purpose, they hunt in the country and are in fields for 99% of the hunt and cross small roads around villages. Anyway I think the point is more the attitude of doing whatever the f**k you want with no regard for other people, than the actual horse racing itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
