Adventures with Chico

horse, horse riding, horseback, horses, equine, equestrian,

Well, I went riding again tonight. I think it went prety well. I've REALLY got to work on my position, though. My legs tend to slide too far back, and I really seem to lose my posture when I start to get tired. All in all it was a good lesson though.

I have been riding a different horse lately (Chico) and I'm just staring to get used to him. He is a much longer horse than Chime, so he tends to pull me forward a bit. He also stumbles alot, which throws off my concentration. Three-loop-serpentines and 20-metre circles went well. Cantering the left lead was good tonight too, but we're a bit weak on the right lead. We also seem to be much better at walk-canter transitions than trot-canter. But, hey, we're working on it. And I had alot of fun, so that's the main thing.

My First Blog

Blog, blogging

I've finally succumbed! I guess I'm now a Blogger.

After spending weeks researching how to Blog, reading hundreds of other blogs to get the feel of blogging, and then agonizing over what blogging "platform" to use, I finally just threw caution to the wind and dove in and started blogging at the first host I came across.

Now we'll see how this goes...
