Had my first ride on Jasper today since doing my back in 3 weeks ago! I tore a ligament in my lower back just before I was meant to go on a Fun Ride on 28th August - Owch! 
Following lots of pain killers and rest, my physio said I could ride Jasper in walk as it would help strengthen my muscles again, so that is what I did. Only for 10 minutes in a very steady walk, but he was SO good and didn't put a hoof wrong, even in the "scary corner" where he normally has to have a good look at nothing and when the wind blew a "horse eating leaf" at him! He was lookin' after his Mommy. lol
SO pleased to be back in the saddle
