Michelle Timmins is a wonderful Ambassador for Ride Proud, she's also a precious friend, and a whole lot of fun to spend time with.
You might have seen her and her horse Cisco and her cattle dog, Reddog in some of our photoshoots. As a team they have just about reached celebrity status.
For a long time now she's been taking me out and about on trail rides in the local area. Think bush rides, beach and rainforest. She goes anywhere and everywhere.
So, when she told me wanted to do an unsupported, 10 day ride on our Australian Bicentennial National Trail I doubted for not one minute that she would do just that.
Her preparation has been slow, methodical and thorough. She's gathered up the gear she needs (including her pack horse, Travis (aka the Esky) and done many, many miles to ensure the fit and safety and to condition her horses. There are other riders joining her now and they will be supported, but Michelle and her horses will be carrying everything they need for the 10 day trip.
She's almost ready. And she's prepared to take us along, vicariously anyway. Michelle is documenting her journey and will sharing it with us.
Because 10 days is waaay too long for me to be in the saddle, and away from home, we're sending her along with some of our gear.
Here's her first journal little entry and some words of gratitude.
My last Pack horse horse training ride today for my big 10 day ride up the CREB track following parts of the BNT only 3 more weekends to go which consist of a Ranch Sorting competition, getting shoes on the boys and a reconnaisance drive to check out some of the camp sites.
My biggest fear is crossing the Daintree River at Bairds crossing.
I’m not sweating the small stuff as Colleen from Ride Proud has my ass covered with sponsorship of riding pants, a cap, a lovely little flexible drinking cup and a journal to write in as I go.
Thankyou so much RP for these gifts of luxury which will make my journey more comfortable

Very nice fit, Love the suade in the seat. A little loose in the waist but a belt will help. Great pockets for phone!
Thank you Colleen for your assistance in getting the size right - I sized down, and the 10s fit perfectly. They are a lovely pair of jeans. I am looking forward to riding in them.
I ordered a shirt and compass ants. They both fit true to size and were comfortable all day in the saddle.
Only riding pants I wear 🩷 perfect for social and riding
I accidentally got the wrong size, but hope to return for the correct one. Thank you for being very fast with the order.
I ordered 2 pairs of pants, the Horizon and the Trail and received a free belt which I absolutely love, it’s beautiful quality and I’ll definitely be ordering another belt in Congnac as soon as it’s back in stock, first class products, thanku again
super love it
I absolutely love these jeans!! Nothing like these in the uk, great fit and so comfy
I absolutely love the colours in this shirt. Can't wait to wear it when I get back riding this spring (I am Canadian 😊).
I was able to ride a few times since I got these new riding pants. First, I love the heavy duty material and comfy, stretchy feel.
I got two different pant sizes to be safe coming from the other side of the world so that one would fit. One fits perfectly and the other slightly bigger. I feel if I want to in the wintertime I can wear terminals under them. I live in a cold climate. Thank you for a wonderful product! I love them! (But when I filled out the forms for the free belt bonus, I did not receive it in my package.)
I haven’t ridden in the tights yet (horse has eye injury) but love the fabric and the cut and styling. I think I am in between sizing, purchased the Sml but the fabric was way too loose in the thigh and knee (I have skinny chicken legs)! The exchange process was dealt with quickly and smoothly and I tried the Xs - these fit great everywhere, only the waistband is a bit tight but I think that will change with more wear. Very comfortable to wear around the property, they look great, I am taking them with me to Scotland this week for some pony trekking. Ride Proud are a friendly and approachable company who are selling a quality product. Great socks as well. Thankyou Colleen for your wonderful customer service!
Last week I received my new pair of Equitation Pants. I had one of those before, and they're still my favourite among the different options. However, I hadn't expected to be soooo happy (again). First ride was in a little competition, and I think they even boosted my confidence (we got ten ribbons!).
Blouse is beautiful, jeans are stretchy and super comfortable.
I am short and had to hem my Tights. Worth it. They fit great while simply sliding on. Love the material, and the stitching is great!
The change from wearing breeches to riding trousers has been difficult. Apart from dragging over your thighs, the riding jeans have been brilliant. The stretch material reduces the drag when mounting; the soft material means all day comfort. The suede is equally light and not bulky, but does its stickability job quietly. It is subtle, allowing for the jeans to be worn casually.
The stretch waist band is a winner. Unfortunately, my small waist means a belt must be worn so the waist band buckles at the back.
I will definitely purchase a second pair when I do not feel guilty - I now have 5 pairs of Ride Proud trousers!!!!
