Another quick entry, hopefully filling in more text later time allowing:
After the last two experiences I am not exactly eager to join any other group rides. But I feel I need to do it so that 'Mr F' can learn that a group of horses doesn't mean he has to race.
'Mr F' is still sweating up when travelling in the trailer but was quite relaxed when we unloaded. He certainly looked interested enough, I know he likes seeing new places, and so do I.
The ride was reasonably relaxing - although 'Mr F' did much jogging for the first 40 minutes. This time I had my temper under control and stayed calm by just accepting the situation. I did once try a neck strap but that made no difference whatsoever!
We were only 7 riders and all of them were riders in control of their horses. This was great because finally 'Mr F' was part of a group that was calm.
Towards the end of the ride, he too was quite calm. Overall it was a good ride out for 'Mr F'.
The boys are nowadays very chilled in the trailer.
