My hubby came into riding late in life and although disgrees I think he is great with more nerve than me sometimes being a man :tongue:
I rode as a kid and as a teen had my own beloved pony who was the perfect first pony then when sold I was heartbroken and did not ride for 17 years :cry:
I have been back at it 7 maybe 8 years and had my own for 5 years :biggrin: which has been a learning curve from ponies then riding school horses to hunters and now tb exracers :spin:
I am dying to ride the racers on the gallops with the other riders in the mornings but bit scared and just gonna have to take the plunge lol. I think its cos I am scared of
1. Making an eegit of myself in front of everyone :redface:
2. Have never ridden that speed before :yellowcarded:
3. Never been in a racing saddle and used to a dressage saddle :unsure:
4. Different horses not used and I am not the get on anything type I was when a young brave teen :redcarded:
Any help advice to get me on those gallops and to survive?? :giggle:
