wow XD I used to have riding lessons, but my teacher was very much an ass... complicated story so I stopped taking lessons, but the horse she had me train (again a complicated story) was very barn sour and always tried to buck me off when we got to far from home (I only fell off the first time and that was because he was having a bad day while we were trying to get him to canter) (the woman didn't let me try to train it out of him... which is pretty sad because he was the sweetest gelding) he went lame so I had to start riding another horse which was bity and not so great as the other... so I kinda know how you feel. glad no one got hurt!

Could have been anything. The first one was already way overexcited, so he probably spooked at something small. That, or he was just hyper. I reckon that sometimes you need to remind yourself of the risk of horseback riding via situations like these. Cause, some 3,000 pond animal flying at you at some thirty miles per hour is low key, terrifying

One time a horse stood on my foot. And horses can go 30 miles an hour? Well, thanks for telling me that. Edited at January 15, 2020 05:50 PM by shadow masters

The fastest horses can reach 55mph. oh, and you gotta hate when they step on you -

Eh, at least they didn't break my foot. The instructer said that most people would try and move their foot out from under the horse- good thing my reaction to pain is to stand still.

Aye. I were you wearing boots or other shoes? My first reaction is to shove them off of me.

Starry Yeah, my mom got a mustang and he is the best thing ever! Its more her horse, but (her words) I'm the better rider, so she wants me to work on trotting and cantering. a friend of ours lets me ride his horse for some trail rides, and once we move back to Germany I'll be getting myself a horse as well ^^ Also I'm very proud of my most recent post on the RP XD

When a horse steps on my foot I push at their shoulder/butt and they usually step off before any harm is done.
