My 11yr old rides his horse with me. The helmet is
grudgingly worn with alot of grumbling - but he REFUSES to wear riding
pants (he calls them girlie tights). We compromised- he wears sweat pants or
wind/nylon workout pants (no inside seams). Even THAT was battle. They sell them
at Wal-Mart. Good luck! Hey, any input from male endurance riders out
there to give us some helpful hints to give to our "macho- concerned with
image") sons would be GGGGRRRRReatly appreciated.
My 8Yo grandson is thinking he wants to start doing some
distance riding with me. He's got a nice horse, saddle that fits him and the
horse, but I need to get him out of his jeans and into some riding
britches...
anybody got boys who ride? What kind of pants do they ride
in? Anything particularly "cool" for a boy this age?? he doesn't object to
wearing a helmet, but I'm not sure if I can push it as far as riding
tights, LOL
