I'm lucking to keep my horse at a yard that offers 24/7 turn out all year round but this does mean that if I ride at night during the week I need to turn back out in the dark and the field is a couple of minutes walk down the road and about to get a bit longer when we move to the winter field.
I'm not 100% sure what side of the road to walk down - when I'm riding I obviously ride on the left in the direction of traffic but if I was walking on the road I'd always walk against the direction of traffic - so when leading a horse which is the right way?
Also, hi vis gear? I currently have a head torch and hi viz tabard and horse has a hi viz noseband and flashing tail guard. I've just ordered a led vest and arm band - is this enough? Is there anything else, particularly for my horse? He's not rugged so not much to attach anything to.
