Good morning! In a month or so I am taking my partner on our first riding holiday, a four night trip at a western ranch (which I have been to before). He is a beginner, although he has had a handful of lessons to get started and has been on a hack.
It's his birthday in a few weeks and I am thinking what essentials I could buy him which would be useful for the trip, plus my family would like to buy him some gifts too. He already has good boots and chaps but he has been using a helmet from the riding school, so his own riding helmet is top of the list. I was thinking some padded cycling shorts might be a wise purchase - are there any that the male riders on here could recommend please? Or any other essentials that might be useful? Maybe some gloves too.
I organise riding holidays for a living but I'm still not that familiar with the best items/brands for men! I just want him to be as comfortable as he can be - riding has been a lifelong dream for him.
Thank you!
