[RC] How do you NOT act like a newbie? - Tx TriggerDavid posted: >>>If someone comes up behind you, it's because either you're loafing, or it's because they have more horse left than you. Either way, let them by. If they slow down later, you can pass them. Try not to consistently leapfrog people.<<< Or it is because their horse is in charge, and they can't slow it down. Best to just get out of their way if they are that out of control, so they don't run up on your horses hind end, and even have their horse step on your horses rear heels. While it IS their problem, often you need to make some moves to protect yourself and your horse. The biggest thing a newbie can do wrong is to NOT have fun. It is just a ride. Go enjoy the day with your horse. If something is not making it fun, change it.
