Ridecamp: Re: [RC] [RC] Born to Trot?

Hmm..  My training numbers must be *way* off then...  a 15mph canter?  That 
would be closer to hand gallop for us...

I want a nice steady 8mph trot and a 12mph canter...  And I would absolutely 
love to get an actual honest clockable 4mph walk...  Without having to use 
*my* legs to keep it up.  Sadly my horse doesn't have this walk on his own, 
more like 2.5 to 3mph...
