Just left work in a busy little village, person on a big horse leading another equally big horse, rider no hat. Road is quite busy used by huge lorries from time to time. Don't normally get cross at such things as am used to seeing the local eventers riding round hatless but for some reason this just struck me as totally muppetry. I think what made it look worse was that she had jeans and a very strappy top on so looked more like she was going down the pub than riding!

People do do bloody silly things...my pet hate is riding past young girls who are out on their own, riding in the middle of a narrow road/lane having an animated conversation with their friends on a mobile phone, then give you a "What's your problem!" look as they eventually move over to let you pass after they've steadfastly ignored you and carried on their conversation for what seems like ages.
