Warming Up at the Walk, Riding 4 Loops Down the Center Line

4 more Shallow Loops down the centerline.

From your 10m circle in the purple cone corner at K, straighten and go large just past A slightly bending to the left.

Ride your first loop 3 – 4 meters to the right of the centerline so that you pass through the 2 orange cones located on the centerline 10 meters from A.

Try to look at and head towards the single red cone in front of E straightening as you near the centerline and then change rein as you cross the centerline slightly bending right.

Ride your 2nd loop 3 – 4 meters to the left of the centerline so that you pass through X.

Try to look at and head towards the letter M, straightening as you near the centerline at X and then change rein as you cross the centerline slightly changing the bend to the left.

Ride your third loop 3 – 4 meters to the right of the centerline so that you pass through the 2 red cones located on the centerline 10 meters from C.

Try to look at and head towards the green cone in the corner near H straightening as you near the centerline and then change rein as you cross the centerline slightly bending right.

Ride your fourth and final loop 3 – 4 meters to the left of the centerline so that you finish up at the letter C.

Now go large on the right rein and make a 10m circle in the yellow cone corner by M.

Continue on to the next portion of the exercise, 2 shallow loops down the long-side.
