My none endurance friends who ride...all are pleasure trail riders...rarely
go out of a walk and if they do it's a jog...They just CANNOT understand why
I tend to fall off my horses. I've tried to explain the physics of an
extremely fast moving horse making a 180 degree turn in a split second with
no warning and what that tends to do to the object perched on the horses
back (me). All I get in response to my attempted explanation are blank
stares.;o)
