No definitely not! Every time I seem to kind of 'make an effort' with what I'm wearing, my ride seems to always end in disaster!

So today I had my first fall off my new horse after owning him for six months. It was pathetic and I'm quite annoyed (it just so happened that it was also in front of people that had never seen me ride before)! We were jumping a pretty small jump and everything was nice and relaxed etc as we...

A little bit of bleach in some hot water and just dunk the end of the tail in. Its a life saver!

I have both, but have only used my chest one while riding, and while it was good, when I cantered or moved suddenly it tended to fall down and film my chest instead of in front of me! I have used my helmet mount for skiing and it was really good, but as I only have the stick on ones, I can't...

I have a 9yo 15.2/3 Connie. Everyone in the family (and the yard!) loves him to pieces, he is just a little saint most of the time. His does have a few quirks as does every horse (can be difficult to catch if he feels like it, but other times comes trotting over like an angel, also can be quite...

I'm looking to buy a two-horse trailer, but I can't decide which brand is best. I think I like the cheval liberte as I have heard lots of good things about them or the equi-tech trail-treka, but they are so much more expensive than other ones if you buy a new or recently made one! I was looking...

My current bridle is slightly too small (came with horse) and I am gradually switching pieces of tack that need replacing hence reason for new bridle!

12 is a super age, definitely 'prime time' as you put it. I know a few people with horses in their late twenties (27,28) who are still jumping brilliantly!

I was doing the exact same thing as you a few months ago! Although the dealers return/exchange guarantee looked quite appealing, any genuine private seller would probably offer (and want!) a one-month trial or something around that as if the horse has come from a loved home, they would want the...

I've been casually searching around for new bridles as I don't desperately need a new one right now but in the near future I will, and i've just come across the Micklem. After reading all the reviews and things about how much better it is for the horse etc I'm still not convinced. My horse seems...
