New 2026 Hacking / riding thread

[GaryB]

The heat has finally relented and we had a little bit of rain. On Thursday we boxed over and rode with my friend C (in the rain to start with!). Friday was a walk round the canter bridleway (much to Harvey's disgust - he wanted a canter but its still too hard). On Saturday we had a nice hack onto our local hill. By Sunday I was a bit achy so just a short hack

We found this - I'm not sure what it is!!

Gosh what is that wet looking stuff.
No wonder horse's are so suspicious of it. I have forgotten what it even is.
Did you look it up and find out

I got her out for a ride and although it was only a short one, we had some nice trots which wakes up the walk.
I paid attention to my position and keeping an eye on what I was up to.
