[RC] laying in a ditch-oops - RENESPONY"Laying in a ditch" was intended for another ride list. Maybe I have a concussion? oops. but good story anyway. Now I know this horse will leave me and get himself lost. scary thoughts for someone aiming for tevis and OD type rides in the future. when i hit the ground my first thought was" oh no, the road" my second though was "he cant do this crap at tevis, we'll get killed" Rene and Rugby ============================================================ Riding alone is when you teach a horse all the "tools" and "cues" he needs to handle the trail, to hold a speed, deal with hills, etc. It's also where you develop the "bond" that causes him to "defer" to you before losing his cool. ~ Jim Holland ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
