Sisters team up for charity ride through Mongolia - Lifestyle - Portsmouth News

Sisters team up for charity ride through Mongolia - Lifestyle - Portsmouth News: "Tracie, 42, who runs The Barley Mow, and her sister Debbie Stevenson, 44, the landlady of The White Horse in Gosport, plan to travel 200 kilometres through Mongolia on horseback in July next year.

Their expedition in aid of Breast Cancer Campaign is expected to last 12 days and they will experience all kinds of extreme weather. They also plan to camp out in the wilderness.

Though Mary made a full recovery after being diagnosed last year, Tracie and Debbie want to help those families that aren’t so lucky.

Tracie says she doesn’t feel too nervous about riding on a horse because she used to do it frequently prior to joining the pub trade.

But she is keen to get a few lessons in before her big challenge and is hoping Crofton Manor Equestrian Centre, in Stubbington, will sponsor her a lesson a week in the run-up."
