Halloween Festivities are swinging into full gear, and at Maverick Riding we plan on riding the wave of child and adulthood silliness alongside the best of them. Our weekend will begin on Friday at noon at our new Special Events Venue, “Flying H Ranch,” in Lockhart, TX, where our professional photographer will be present to snap some photos of riders decked out in their favorite Halloween gear. Care to sport a costume and selfie it up with a unicorn? Now’s your chance. Book a ride with us at noon, 3pm or 5:30pm to enjoy the sunset and we will enjoy the spooktacular energy of one of America’s favorite customs as well as the opportunity to ride on Spoaks Motopark’s professional race track. Yep. You heard us. Professional motocross track. Sweet.
Saturday morning at 10am and again at 1pm we will have rides open to the public. Call to schedule. Leave room in your day following your horseback riding adventure to peruse through some family-friendly activities, all free to the public.
