Anybody riding; Berry, Johns Mtn., Pinhoti, or Pigieon Mtn.? during the week or Saturday willing to do a slow ride and show me the trails or want a riding buddy just trying to get back in condition this summer ? Or I could ride partway , then you go ahead? I'd like to aim for Talledeaga.Lots of trails around here I like to learn preferable with company at least once, I have asked 6 people already......
I got one set of walk only riders ( like 20 ) once a month ( well, it's good for the mind, to walk occasionally). (but no rides in July or Aug.) I found a lady who wants to ride a bit,we walked, but she was on a lame any one can ride horse and a saddle seat saddle--(plus walking on a road to get to the trailhead that has guard rails, and 3 ft. shoulder with cars that come by at about 50 mph, and oh, yeah, the 18 wheeler pallet truck---I was handwalking him ---- (I saw the "Horse Whisperer")- R. has had cars in pasture and drive by where we used to live, but his eyes got BIG when the truck , which had stopped behind a truck who slowed everyone behind him. -A bay horse in the shadows on a curve, though I had a white shirt and orange helmet cover, didn't slow them down much .) She said something about riding her Tenn. walker next time 'cause she could keep up with R. We just walked the ridge, but I had to stop R. to wait for Frosty. I'd circle and let him eat, and say 'lets wait for Frosty". After a couple times , he's slow look for Frosty , wait and then I didn't have to tell him when to go , because if we got even, Frosty would quit on her. Frosty didn't want to lead either, which was fine, cause R. likes to lead.
Did I mention she said," you know there are bears around here?" while riding. I said, "oh, yeah, you are further up the road where it's wilder on the ridge". Then she mentioned the "CAT" rumours and sightings. We did see one lonely turkey. I didn't like that with all the rain, the access road up to the ridge had 3-4 foot weeds and you couldn't see the road under .R. kept heading for occasional bare areas , cause he was sure there was a trail somewhere! We did go into the woods up on the ridge some, but her horse was really sweating, and footsore, so we headed back. Short ride.
Maybe her other horse can gait or trot.....some.......
