Sorry for the monday morning self indulgent post but share with people who would understand.
Some of you may know I've been off riding for months with a problem with my knee.
Well a few weeks ago I started again. Not on Sid as I couldn't control him at the moment with my weakened leg, but another horse.
At the weekend I felt brave enough to try a canter and was told "not on that horse, he doesn't canter. Not even for his owners".
Undetterred I tried anyway and got it immediately. To prove it wasn't a fluke we did it several times! Now it wasn't elegant and if I'd ridden Sid like it I would have hit the deck but i was so chuffed!!
I'm a poo rider so it wasn't anything I did so can't understand why I could get it and no one else can!
Sorry pointless post but rather pleased with myself!
