Re: [RC] FW: [RC] why I don't love trail riding - Kathy Mayeda

I KNEW there was a reason why I have a death grip fear of cantering in the arena! 
 
I'm taking remedial riding lessons with an understanding instructor that baby-steps me through cantering in the arena.  Then I get on the trail and blast up hills and single tracks with cliff drop-offss no problem.  
 
Those fence rails are deadly.....

Arena riding -- didn't we have a Secretery of the Interior who got killed being bucked into an arena fence a few years back? My point is, arenas may be more hazardous than the great outdoors because those unyelding metal posts and rails are close all around.
