Hello everyone, my name is Elsha. I have just joined BITs and I can not wait to get started playing. I am a female living in New Zealand. In real life I own an 9 year old Appaloosa gelding called Ace. He is my baby, I have had him since he was 4 and I don't know what I would do without him. Anyway enough about my boy. When playing sim games I usually have Appaloosa and Quarter Horses and have them showing in Western events, but in this game I want to try something new and start with the Arabians since I have always had an interest in that breed after riding one. I am unsure what sort of events they suit though so I will have to do my research (maybe I should have done that first)
See you around.

Hi Elsha, welcome to Bits! I'm Elise and I own Alzi ls Barra, a hunter jumper stable which dabbles in racing and dressage here and there. I can't wait to see what you bring in; my first horse in real life was a Polish Arabian and I have always had a soft spot for Arabians (although I don't believe I own any at the moment hehe). In real life I'm a sophomore at Northern Michigan University studying photography and ride a bit of everything english, but am focusing on jumping and eventing at the moment. I own a Latvian Warmblood gelding Atlas, and if you'd like to see him, I just posted a bunch of new pictures in a thread at the photos board. Do you have any pictures of your guy? Do you show him? We'd love to hear all about him (or see him!) if you want to share I see you're interested in Siglavy Raluca; he's a great horse! I had him in All-Sim and imported him a while back but I started focusing on different disciplines and he wasn't getting used as much as he should have been Good luck with him if you adopt him!

Arabians can do pretty much everything: Western Pleasure, Cow, Gymkhana, Sporthorse, and Saddleseat. They're pretty versatile horses! They also race.
Anyhow, I'm Shelly, owner of Equus Me, which is made up of three branches: Champion's Bid Ranch, where my western/stock horses reside, Hill Point Estate, home of my steeplechasers and Racehorses, and Foxtail Stables, home to my pony string and home to my Irish horses. In BITS I'm attempting to focus on my stock horses, racehorses/steeplechasers, Irish Horses, and my pony string, but I still have a lot for sale!

Hey, my name is Kate and I own Rising Star Farms. It started out as a strictly Thoroughbred racing barn, but now I have a little bit of everything. If you wanna check it out we also welcome boarders.
Welcome to BITS and I hope you like the game as much as I do..

I would love to board my horse's at your barn Kate. I have sent a PM to Nicole about boarding at her stable but she has not replied to me yet. I will send a PM to you.

Hey Elsha, and welcome to BITS! I'm Rainbow, one of the three admins here. =)
I own Wildwind Equestrian Centre in the game -- we offer boarding as well, but it sounds like you're set for that. We specialise in hunters, jumpers, and dressage -- my horses are mostly Thoroughbreds and Warmbloods, with a few ponies. I also run dressage shows and h/j shows, with the goal of setting up a Dressage Society and a Hunter/Jumper Association this summer. That is, if I ever get time at home -- I just recently returned to the States from a 10-month sojourn in the UK, and I returned today from a week in three US National Parks.
In real life, I ride dressage with a bit of jumping on the side. I used to lease a 20y/o Thoroughbred gelding, Xavier, but stopped when I jumped ship and went to the UK. I will probably start half-leasing again now that I am back in the States, but I don't know for sure yet.
I'm sure Nicole will be happy to have a fellow Arabian-lover in the game!
Welcome, again! If you have any questions or need any help with anything, ask away. We are a friendly bunch. =)
