Siegried Peilicke Honored With "Ritmeister" Title

Siegried PeilickeGerman dressage guru Siegfried "Bimbo" Peilicke has been honored with the title of Ritmeister at the equestrian facility of Ann Kathrin Linsenhoff in Kronenberg, Germany. Peilicke recently celebrated his 70th birthday and now received his Ritmeister certificate from Madeleine Winter-Schulze at a party in Kronberg, where 150 guests were present.

Peilicke is the 25th Ritmeister in the history of the German Equestrian Federation. The very first title of Ritmeister went to Willi Schultheis in 1975. Other fortunate recipients are Karl-Heinz Giebmanns, Johann Hinnemann, Fritz Ligges, Herbert Meyer, Herbert Rehbein, Harry Boldt and Horst Karsten, yet only four Ritmeisters completed both the theoretic and practical test in dressage and jumping. They are Günther Festerling and Theo Hansen in 1964) and Karl-Heinz Streng and Jean Bemelmans in 1989.
