"2021 is the 50th Anniversary of the Chesley Saddle Club, and we are hoping to host several rides in celebration of this milestone. We all want to be able to ride together again but will have to follow COVID restrictions as they evolve. We will tentatively plan as much as we can but realize we may need to change plans as the year progresses. Please check this page often for updates"
