The other day I was riding and found myself in a road paving project area. This was a project on a 4-lane road with 1/2 of the two lanes on my side paved… and the other 1/2 getting prepared for paving to continue. The problem is that the 1/2 that was paved was the left lane and this caused a height difference “ridge” of approximately 1 – 2 inches of asphalt between the two lanes (of course I was in the right “low-side” lane).
Horseback Equitation
In an equitation class, your horse doesn’t have to be the smoothest jumper in the world, or the most elegant mover, the rider is the one being judged, and the horses’ movement is irrelevant to some degree.
