[RC] What do you think when you are coming off? - rides2far


With me it's almost lays the trotting 90 mph, slam on the brakes and
break left that gets me. I'm just cruising along and I suppose my first
thought is, "Where's my horse?" Strange feeling when you're still hanging
in the air and he's suddenly gone. My most common injury is the rope burn
between the fingers where I hang onto the reins. I generally fly over his
head and land squatting facing him in the trail. He runs backwards
because a person just flew out of the sky and landed in front of him and
that's shocking. I get a rope burn because I hang onto the reins when he
does it. I know I'm kinda known for breaking the collarbone but those
aren't from me falling off. Those are from him flippin with me. That's
when I think, "Where's my horse's head?"
