When Bubba Wallace and Amanda Wallace tied the knot last year on New Year’s Eve, after dating for five years, the entire NASCAR community had their heartwarming moment. It’s funny to realize that these two love birds studied in the same high school and Amanda had gone to Bubba’s prom with someone else.

Gladly, things worked out between them when, after a series of persuasions from Bubba, Amanda finally agreed to show up to the 23XI driver’s race at Las Vegas and the rest is history. However, did you know Amanda Wallace has an innate love for horses?

According to their official website, Leatherman Lane hosts an annual event at Leatherman Lane farm in Concord, North Carolina to commemorate Horse lovers’ day. Only once a year, they open up their exclusively private facility for everyone to visit to show their appreciation for the people’s love for horses.

What’s more, Leatherman Lane Farm organizes a gala event known as the “Ride Jen Ride”, where everyone can participate with their personal horses to ride on an attractive trail on that day. And it’s on October 7th this year. What would happen if a person who doesn’t own a horse wanted to ride? One might ask.

To their utter glee, various vendors come in to rent horses and ponies to those who do not own a horse. The announcement equally elated Amanda Wallace. In a recent Instagram story, she put up the best part about this grand occasion.

Amanda wrote, “Saturday is Horse Lovers Day!!! All are welcome!!!” This event also aims at raising awareness of breast cancer among the masses. The entry fee for the event is just $5.
