Back on Richie


What better way to spend a Sunday morning than riding Richie? It was in fact nearly a year since the last time I sat on him now I think - so it was about time.

I have to admit I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but to put it this way: I stayed on the water last night. I didn't want the odds to be too uneven.

But then it turned out I had nothing to worry about and it all went surprisingly well - expecially since I have hardly been riding lately. He was bit reluctant to play dressage of course, but then that was to be expected. All in all I was only subjected to a few half-hearted bucking attempts in the end.

The thing is though, if I know him right he will save his energy to when I start relaxing and get a bit careless -or have a killer hangover.
So looks like I'll have to schedule some quiet Saturdays in the next few weeks...



Trying to get out of it...


But I normally get my way in the end...
