Visiting a barn

Browse a barn's public schedule and ask to join a ride — no account needed.

On this page

If a barn shares its schedule publicly, anyone with the link can see upcoming rides and ask to join one — no account, no sign-in required.

Viewing the schedule

Open the barn's link and you'll land on its Public schedule — the week's rides at a glance. The subtitle sums it up: "Upcoming rides this week."

  • Move between weeks and jump to Today using the toolbar.
  • Filter the week by instructor, ride type, or location using the dropdowns.
  • Each ride shows its time, type, and the instructor's first name — nothing more. Past rides, participant names, and horse assignments aren't shown; this is a read-only, privacy-safe view.
  • Some barns ask for a password before showing the schedule at all. If so, you'll see a short entry screen first — the barn will have given you the password.

Asking to join a ride

To request a spot:

  1. Click any upcoming ride on the schedule. A short form opens: Ask to join this ride.
  2. Fill in your Full name, Your email, and optionally Phone (optional) and a Message (optional) for the instructor.
  3. Complete the quick verification check, then select Send request.

What happens next

After you select Send request, Nose emails you a confirmation link, and nothing reaches the barn yet. Open the email, click Confirm request, then click Send the request to the barn on the page that opens. Do this within 24 hours, or the request is dropped and nothing is booked. That way nobody can book a ride in your name, so if you didn't ask for a place, just ignore the email. If you're signed in, your request goes straight to the barn.

  • The barn reviews your request and confirms or declines it. Keep an eye on your email — they'll be in touch.
  • If you didn't already have a Nose account, one is created for you when the barn accepts your request. To use it afterward, open the sign-in page and sign in with the same email you used here — Nose sends you a link or a one-time code, no password needed.
  • If you already have an account, your request is linked to it automatically.

Good to know

  • Already have a Nose account? If the barn offers self sign-up, use Sign in / Join in the top corner — it's there when you open the schedule signed out — instead of filling in your details again. More in Signing in & joining a barn.
  • If you're signed in already, the join form skips straight to an optional message — your account details are attached automatically, and you can review them later in your account settings.
  • Not every barn takes requests this way — if a barn hasn't turned on public sign-up, you won't see the join option, and a member returning to this page instead sees a way back into their own dashboard.
  • The public schedule never shows who else is riding, which horses are assigned, or any pricing information — just the times, ride types, and instructor first names.
