What's riding?............Oh that thing you're supposed to do with your horse.

Is it? I thought you were just meant to muck out its sh!t, feed it, take it for walks in-hand, groom it, and look at its tack every now and then and try and remember what all the bits 'n' pieces are for.

Ho hum.

i hunted mine last tues and rode out sat. my boss hunted 1of hers new years day and we walked both her horses out yesterday

luckily we have a small indoor so every day, apart from sunday as the courtyard between the field where she lives out and the stables was too icy to walk her across - she is still mega fresh being worked 5 days a week - she lives out so can move around and burn off energy but with the ice and snow she just stood in shelter eating her hay!! so now cut her hard feed as was loopy on tues!

I last rode on Saturday.

couple of hours ago, rode in pristine snow, under floodlights, was a lovely atmosphere.

stuck to the same 30m circle to churn the snow up, as the surface was fine underneath and manage to walk/trot/canter, do some suppling and stretching and a bit of shoulder in/travers.

horse is barefoot though so no issues with ice stilts(feet were totally clear).

About 3 weeks since I last rode properly, but I got on him to plod round the arena for a cool down after lunging this morning

 

[brucea]

I've hacked in the woods most days and in the fields had lovely canter changes, pirouetes, half passes and all! The snow brings out the very best in my lad!

My herd are all barefoot so they don't slide on snow or icy ground. I feel a bit for the shod guys at the moment teetering around.

4th December 2009 - although I'm not sure that actually counted as riding. Hadn't quite mounted when I landed on the floor with broken leg. So probably 3 days earlier would have been my last actual ride.

Since 28th

Farrrrr too long. Least we went out with a bang though - last time on board was hunting

 

[chaps89]

Last managed to ride mine on Sunday for half an hour, before that it was before Christmas, just not enough time over the holds and now the weathers struck.
In terms of the horses I ride for another lady, either the yard is too frozen/slippery to get to the indoor, or the outdoor is frozen and we have the same problem with crossing the yard anyway. Can't be helped, just one of those things. Last rode there Thurs last week but it feels like a lot longer- just keeping fingers crossed now it clears up soon!

 

[lukeylou]

rode on tuesday! and he's out every day. so he's ok, bored but not too fizzy =]
