We are California Gymkhana Association Dist 45, the "Gymkhana Rush Riders". We support riders from Sonoma, Napa, Marin, Mendocino, and Lake Counties in Northern California.
For those of you that are new to speed events you may be wondering what is Gymkhana? Gymkhana is timed obstacle racing on horseback. It's one of the most exciting FAMILY oriented equestrian sports in the world. Gymkhana is the action packed, precision sport of the equestrian world - a good Gymkhana horse must have the speed of a race horse, the turning quickness & agility of a cutting horse, & the control and responsiveness of a stock horse.
CGA has brought fairness and dignity to Gymkhana with the standardization of Gymkhana rules and the "Earn As You Learn" awards programs. Riders now have the opportunity to win awards in Gymkhana as they develop their riding skills. CGA is very proud that all riders, from 3 to 83, can compete and earn awards. There are 13 events to challenge you and your horse.
