Hi everyone!
My name's Alexa, in real life and here. I'm sixteen and I live in southern Connecticut, where I'm a junior in high school and currently DYING from the stress of it all. Dx
Anyway I have one and a half horses; the whole one is Spirit, my seven-year-old buckskin QH—he's one of those nutty playful lippy golden-hearted horses with a giant brain...you know the type. The "half" is Savannah, who my friend sort of dumped on me. She's a big chestnut leopard Appie who helps the little man remember his manners. I've been riding H/J since I was seven, but right now we just do trails since they live at my house.
I have yet to decide what I want to do in BITS—I'm debating between Warmblood sporthorses, drafts (I'm usually the Shire lady), or Fell and Dales Ponies. Or something completely different. xD It depends on what you all do around here.
I'd love to get to know you guys! My AIM is xsurfait, feel free to add me, I love to chat.

Hey Alexa! Glad to see yet another new face around here! I've only been here since December, but I absolutely love this game. Everyone is here for each other, so dont ever be afraid to ask anyone a question. Even if they dont know the answer, they will probably tell you who would know the answer.
Anyway I own Rising Star Farm, and I mostly have Thoroughbreds, with a bunch of other horses thrown in..lol. I go to school (college) for horse racing management, and currently spent all of last summer at the track, so now I am hooked. Hoping to get a job there this summer too..lol.
Have fun, and stop in and take a look around RS and feel free to board there if you would like, its open to anyone!

Welcome to BITS Alexa Always a welcoming site to see new members to our small community! I'm Shelly, and I own practically everything (except draft horses so far lol). I own Equus Me, which has three branches - Hill Point Estate, for my Thoroughbred racehorses and steeplechases, Champion's Bid Ranch - the original stable I owned, now homes my Quarters, Paints, Appaloosas, and other western breeds, and Foxtail Sporthorses, which of course homes any sporthorse I own. I offer boarding at all three spots, and my plans are fairly reasonable. Feel free to message me about boarding In real life, I ride the trails and that's about it. This summer I'll be riding a Quarter Horse outcrop named Dream. She looks big and is about... 15.2 I think. ;D She's a slow old mare, though, and my friend is considering breeding her to her buckskin dun roan stallion, Colty, or her grandparents stud, Jack. Hopefully everything works out nicely with Dream, and she has a nice foal. Well... that's about it. Feel free to add me to aim: DmQuarterhorse

Hey Alexa, welcome to Bits I'm Elise, and I am currently making a shift into an almost totally h/j stable, but of course it probably won't stay like that! Haha! If you're interested, I have a sale thread with a lot of nice, cheap Sport Horses that could use an active home! In real life I'm a freshman in college studying photography and graphic design. I ride mainly Dressage and hunters but am going to start eventing this summer through the US Pony Club with my boy Atlas. Are you Surfait from Volte?

Hey Alexa! I'm Rainbow, one of the admins here in the game. I own Wildwind Equestrian Centre, and my horses are mostly Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods, and Dales Ponies (I'd love to see some more in the game, hint hint nudge nudge wink wink) for hunters, jumpers, and dressage. I also sort of own the BHJA, which hasn't had an official website in ages but will have one soon!
In real life, I am originally from the States but am currently living in the UK for a year. Back in the US, I half-leased a Thoroughbred gelding, Xavier, and we did dressage. Here, I've been riding whatever I can and learning about showjumping lol.

Ooooh Dales Ponays! Well I'll have to get some now. And if I get Dales I'll have to represent my favourite Fells. I need to be careful not to spiral into hoarding. xD It's gonna be hard though.

Haha. If you check the WEC sales thread on the sales board (it's not too far down), I do believe there MIGHT be a Dales Pony for sale. I might be wrong, though... I don't remember. >.<
