Horses back on Charlbury Roads-Woodstock Road, Ditchley,Town

Fri 17 Jan, 16:30

The very intense "daylight bright" LED blinking lights we've seen in recent years on cyclists in surrounding roads have impressed us with attracting immediate attention, much better than just wearing a chrome yellow or orange tabard.

Or would a blinking light of this brightness, err, "frighten the horses" (to un-coin a phrase?).

Hello Olivia

Please can you tell us if we can expect a significant increase in horse riders using the Oxfordshire Way through to Fawler? The current surface of this popular bridleway is very vulnerable in wet weather and we would hope that it remains equally accessible to all bridleway users.

Evening lovely Charlbury residents!

I have moved my riding school and equestrian business to Baywell on the Fawler Road this week so thought it might be helpful to warn local drivers there will be horses on the Woodstock Road up to the bridle path (on the right) , on roads to Ditchley and in Town on a regular basis. We will avoid the rush hour or times with bad weather/visibility,  will be wearing high- visibility tabards and will make every effort to ride thoughtfully. Drivers we have seen so far have been amazing, giving us loads of room and going past slowly- we very much appreciate it! Any problems- please message me on here. Thank you and stay safe! Olivia
