FORT WORTH, Texas and ARLINGTON, Va., Nov. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Ride Television Network is proud to announce the launch of its 24/7, high definition, equestrian themed television channel on KlowdTV.

"Additionally, we secured distribution with cable and Telco operators."
RIDE TV launched in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia through Armstrong – a cable operator – with new markets being added in November.
