Georgia and have no hills, only flat boring sandy dirt roads.&nbsp;&nbsp; I trailer to the beach in the summer to get out of the bugs in the woods here.&nbsp; We go about 10 miles,at 8-10 mph, alternating between hard packed and deep sand.&nbsp;&nbsp; If your horses arent used to deep sand be very careful- maybe the first few months just walk for 1/2 hr and no more.</FONT></DIV> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>happy riding!</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anita Carlson</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
