Hi everyone! My name is Kelly and I'm 20 years old. I live in The Netherlands. I've owned a Haflinger mare, but unfortunatly I had to sell her 2 years ago.  My hobbies are photography, drawing, animals and nature. I like sports too, especially running and mountainbiking. I'm not sure yet on what breed I'm gonna focus in BITS, but I think I'm gonna specialize in some draft-breeds, or maybe a few warmbloods or so. We'll see  |

Woo, look at this, I made it here first!  Hey Kelly, welcome to BITS! I'm Christie, a fellow 20 yr old simmer...that's one of the things I love about BITS, I never feel like I'm way older than everyone else. Anywho, I own Simple Charms Equestrian Center, along with a few establishments, and I focus mainly on Irish Sporthorses and Thoroughbreds, mostly for eventing. Evanthe will be happy to hear there's another draft enthusiast joining us  And the warmbloods would definatly fit in around here, there's plenty haha. Any thoughts on disciplines your group might be competing in? Again, welcome to BITS, hope you enjoy it as much as we all do! ;D |

Hey Kelly, and welcome! I'm Rainbow, one of the admins here. I own Wildwind Equestrian Centre and the Hunter/Jumper Association. In the game, I focus primarily on dressage horses, hunters, and showjumpers. In real life, I ride dressage on a half-leased Appendix QH gelding, Murray, and a Thoroughbred retired eventer, Xavier. I hope you enjoy your stay here just as much as the rest of us. =) Can't wait to see your horses!

Hi Kelly, welcome to BITS! I'm Maya (also 20 lol), and I live in Ontario, Canada. I'm another one of the admins, and I own a bunch of farms here, specializing in eventers and Thoroughbred racehorses. In RL, I do dressage/eventing, and have 5 horses/pony. You should definitely get some warmbloods, lol But it will be really exciting to see some more drafts in the game, as well. Evanthe will be happy, I'm sure  Anyway, I hope you enjoy the game as much as all of us do! |

Hey, Kelly! I'm Gwen and I'm one of the admins. We're the same age :-D I am a student at Indiana University in the US. I have a couple paints in RL and used to show, but don't really anymore because of school. In the game, I own Show Me Halter and Performance Horses and have mainly paints and stock horses, but a few sporthorses, too :-D
It is cool that you live in the Netherlands. We have several people on here from the UK, but no one from the Continent as far as I can remember and a lot of people from the US and Canada :-D
Welcome to the game! I am sure you'll have a great time!

*tackle hugs* Yay! Draft Horses rock out loud! Definately get into them. That way I actually get some draft company, lol. Warmbloods are popular too.
Nice to have you in the game. I'm going to be 20 in a couple weeks, on the 20th of January....^_^ It's going to be my golden B-Day.
Can't wait to see what horses you bring in.

Thanks everyone! I've decided to specialize in Schwarzwälder Fuchs horses, a beautiful and small draft horse. But I'm also into Belgians and Clydesdales, so you'll probably find some of those too in my future stables. |
