About ten years later I had three lessons with BSM.
It was a similar experience although this time the instructor was somewhat more professional.
I’m all for rising to a challenge but also accepting of my limitations.
No cars for me

16.2" hands high, a hand is a measure of 4 inches from base of neck (withers) to the ground.
Thanks Artie, I rode most of my life worked at several stables & later rode & looked after peoples horses.
Not my horse, sadly. Maizey was a Hanoverian breed.

I fell off my bike last week and damaged my knee and grazed my legs, so I think I’ll stick to driving my car for now - though I really prefer Shanks’s Pony - I feel my own two feet are more reliable than two wheels, four legs or four wheels.

I have done all of the above. We had a Clydesdale, a big gentle fellow. He worked the raspberry fields. We also had a trip to Morocco and had a bit of a trek on a camel. Fun !

We have 2 Clyde’s my OH rescued several years ago. We named them Bonnie and Clyde. Wonderful pair of characters and they are excellent watch dogs lol. They whinny and stomp loudly if anyone comes to the house that they don’t know.

All have their moments happy to ride, cycle or drive depending on the circumstances. Love cycling to the pub for lunch with Kim and friends and then cycling home. Love driving a car, love the occasional hack out. Horse is 24 now so it no longer happens he is retired but he still looks lovely in his paddock

Or a tractor. We lived on a farm. My father was happy to drive his tractor.
