The Rider is Online...
The Rider has a long history. It began over 35 years ago as The Canadian Western Rider, the first western discipline horse publication in Canada. In 1994 we merged with our other publications, The Canadian Quarter Horse Journal and The English Rider. The Rider has special English, Western, Quarter Horse and general sections, many interesting columns, a comprehensive coming events section, stable, stallion, and service directories and classifieds. The Rider covers all English disciplines, including Dressage, Hunter/Jumpers,
Our First Issue
Driving, Endurance, and breeds such as Sport Horses, Thoroughbreds, Warmbloods and Heavy Horses. All aspects of the Western Horse Industry are covered as well, such as
Reining, Barrel Racing, Team Penning and Western Pleasure, and breeds such as Quarter Horses, Paints, and Appaloosas. Light breeds such as Morgans, Arabians and Saddlebreds are also covered. A number of prominent associations have chosen The Rider as their official newsletter. Some of which have been with us for more than three decades! (For a full list of our member associations follow this link.) Our current readership is in excess of 20,000 and we are the proud winners of the 2004 through 2007 OEF Media of the Year Award.
