Hay there! How do we devolop that reflex? I have no clue but I know after
one time of getting dumped in the woods and walking two miles home on a
sprainied ankle that it really hones that skill and I feel much better and
more confident when I don't worry about falling off. I was a basket case
after I got dumped, but I bucked up and said so what? You won't ride alone
again if you don't and if I don't ride alone most of the time I don't get to
ride at all, if I waited for a partner I would only get to go once a week if
I am lucky.

So far I have not done any serious dismounts, a few bruises. I think when
you have a big butt it makes you bottom heavy and all that padding protects
quite well :-)

I have a new nick name Trickrider and the all widsh they had a video camera
and we would win the prize on funniest home videos.

Maybe I should take my show on the road.

Like Bob says Its gotta be FUN!
If you're gonna ride...ride hard or stay home.

Happy Trails

Bobbi & Shai
