    Competing in a cast?

    My advice is don't ride at all. After damaging my wrist in a show jumping fall I ended up riding too soon (doctors told me it was ok) and I ended up damaging it even worse by starting again too soon.

    Horsebox with Flat Battery

    I'm a complete horsebox novice, and have only owned mine (Iveco 7.5t) for about 6months. It hasn't been run in about 2months (horse injured!) and inevitably the battery is now flat. Please could someone give me an idiots step-by-step guide to charging up the battery? I honestly know nothing...
