Only rode a horse once, but what a blast, especially when you get it to run!!! Hard on the backside first time though!!

I think the first mod would be a fart-pipe exhaust.

I love horses. And the horses Britt posted are really nice animals. Thanks for posting Britt. And being a good sport.

The first time I rode a horse was when I was a kid. About 7. It was fun when the horse was walking. But as soon as he started picking up the pace, I was bouncing around like crazy. My tailbone was sore for a day or two. Other than that, I loved it.

I grew up riding horses at my grandparents' place but I haven't been able to in years. Girl I'm talkin to has been riding horses for years and currently has a couple. I miss it. We didn't have time to ride last time I visited but hopefully next time it's nice enough and we have enough time to work with that I can ride. I grew up around quarter horses and arabians so the Walking Horses that are huge around here are a bit different for me LOL. The Kentucky Derby was one of the few things I paid attention to from that state before I moved there in 2001. There's something about a horse running full tilt that's just beautiful.

You can't forget about your Monte and your monte Carlo forum family. Have fun. Gregg
Thanks. I hope I find her too. She was soo amazing and beautiful. Ha nice & don't worry I could never forget about you guys! This is like the only forum that I ever get on anymore lol

Thanks! I never thought that I would have another chance to be into horses again until I was out of college so I really have to take advantage of this opportunity & not screw around & miss it. Only issue is that I am having is the fact that the monte is just racking up TONS of miles. It's an extra 30 miles to go to either one of the horses locations after I am done at the shop sooo yeah. It's killing the monte

Thanks! Yeahh I figured it was about time to let you guys in on my lil secret. Ohh yeah I'm having a blast! Today was amazing too riding Dusty. It just keeps getting better & better. Ah it's unlike anything, to me it's like true freedom & the connection that you get with the horse is indescribable.

But seriously... how tall is the white one youre riding in the first set of pics...

Here, they have a REALLY big horse show every year that is something to see for a horse addict like yourself.
Thanks! haha oh man wouldn't that be funny! In the first set of pics? Gammie is the first horse shown & she is about 14ish hands, I don't know the for sure height of any of them. Mist is about 15 hands. Lightning is the smallest I think, he is about as tall as Gammie. Oh really? Mann I loveee going to horse shows! It's so much fun

lol just to get Dusty toned up & beautiful. I'm riding him on uneven ground more often to help his muscles & balance work more to help him tone up quicker.

Omg it does! The first time I rode in 5 years, I rode 5 horses & my butt & legs hurt soooooooo bad for like the next week! It takes a while to get back into it enough to where your butt doesn't hurt. Yup running is a lot of fun! It's a real adrenaline rush, that's one reason why I loved barrel racing so much

Oh nice. Yeah you tend to miss it when you get out of it afte ryou had grown up with it. I grew up with Arabians too, absolutely gorgeous animals! We had a black arabian stallion that was to die for! One of the most beautiful horses I have ever seen. I also grew up riding Appaloosas and Quarter horses as well as the Arabs. Oh man yeah it is pretty awesome. I don't get to watch it too often though but in Ocala I lived close to lots of their big training farms.
