Inspired by our first solo horse ride, 5000 miles of hope, it’s now time for:

5001 MÉXICO A CABALLO

We successfully completed our 13 month, 5000 mile international horse ride in 2018. Now, in May 2019, we are heading back on the road, Roxy leading the way…

This time the journey is the destination, and the journey is about sharing horse health, horse experiences and horse stories. My hunger is for horse knowledge. My desire is to see how horses can make us better people.

Follow us to discover performance and working horses healthy and thriving. AND to see how horses walk amongst us as healers.

This May the long ride begins in the Guatemalan Highlands followed by a year long tour through horse-loving Mexico. more…

I am Long Rider Chris MacLuckie. With honor I once again set off on my trusty Morgan mare Roxy to set an example of working horse health. I will share how we successfully ride long distances with the right horse, the right preparation, the right care, and the right support.

Roxy and I have joined up with some very special horse groups for the 5001 Long Ride for Horse Health. My new and old sponsors have generously shown faith in the 5001 mission. To have their trust and endorsement helps smooth the road ahead.

I invite you to follow us here and on social media. It’s going to be a blast…
