Training with a sprinkling of rearing.

i’m currently a week away from starting riding across america and it’s been a busy few days, i flew to houston from the caribbean on friday and sunday went we took 2 horses up to round up Ringo and take him back to the ranch for some last minute training.

Ringo went really nicely on Sunday in walk trot and canter, he’s definitely the right horse for this with just the right level of curosity and attitude to still be fun…. and that’s where i stopped typing last night, todays a different story.

this afternoon we tacked him up after being stabled and i got on very briefly, he was being a d*** and reared and went right over back onto my leg. Pretty sure there’s no permanent damage just swelling and bruising, i firmly believe that you should always get back on but i could barely stand let alone get back on.

Tomorrows jobs going to be getting back on as i dont have time to be injured
