23.01.2022 CAMPING, PARKING & YARDS ETC | Hi everyone, only one more sleep until the MNPC 2020 ODE!!!!!!!!! We have a lot of people to fit in this weekend, so we've put together a mud map to show you where to camp, park and erect your electric fencing/portable panels etc. A couple of things to note: If you do not have a float attached to your vehicle please park out on the grassy verge Please park/camp parallel to the river Please park as close to your neighbour as you can (whil...e maintaining social distancing requirements) so we can squeeze everyone in Please do not turn out horses in the round yard, fenced arena or quarantine yards Don't forget to bring long extension cables if you are hoping to hook up to power. Power is limited so will be on a first in best dressed basis Don't forget your aeroguard Our PIC code is QIMC0708 If you have any questions please send us a pm. See you all soon

17.01.2022 Wrapping up the ODE for 2020 Congratulations to our winners, great job to everyone who rode. So much great sportsmanship on show over the weekend. Huge thank you to a few important local businesses: ... Heathz Mechanical for sponsoring our trophy rugs Stabler and Howlett Veterinary Surgery for being our trusty course vet QTTS first aid for being our course first aider (and fortunately, sparingly needed). Without the support of these local businesses we wouldn’t have been able to run such a successful event.
