Answer
Hi Wendy,

Below you'll find information about Spicelands Riding Centre, Bermuda's source for oceanside group trail rides.  Get there from Dockyard (King's Wharf) on bus #8 (the Dockyard/Hamilton bus) or by taxi.  This may take approximately 1/2 hour.  For information about Bermuda's buses, visit www.bermudabuses.com.  Though I am a rider myself, I have to say that I've never been on a ride in Bermuda -- it can be quite hot (and I'm not a morning person to take advantage of the cooler temperatures).  All trail riders must sign a waiver and, from what I understand, children under 10 may not be permitted.  Call for more details and advance booking instructions.  I hope you enjoy!  Nan
