 Hi Angie,

 

I wasn't thanking you for your advice, but for your humor, your t shirts, your cartoons, your ability to keep things lite. THAT is worth its weight in gold!

And of course, I would never believe you would risk your horse to win a race!
:)

You see, that's how we know you're new. You haven't met me and learned to

ignore my advice...and you haven't gotten to the point of knowing that if

you *ever* get a horse good enough to win Tevis the LAST thing you want

to do is risk hurting that horse trying to win *Tevis*!!

 

I'm far more interested in Karen Everhart's riding advice to Paul:

 

>:It probably means that you are using your "knee extensors" (front of

the thigh muscles) to post or 2-point, rather than the hip extensors in

the gluts and >>>hamstrings.  It could also EASILY mean that your

stirrups hang at a forward angle and you have to ">>>>brace" through your

knee to stay up or post up.

 

I'm off to find a diagram to see where the gluts & hamstrings are and go

see if I can feel them when I ride! :-)) IT'S SO HUMID HERE I WANNA GO TO

MALAYSIA FOR A BREAK!!!

 

Thanks Karen!

Angie
