Forest ride


Another beautiful day today - hard to believe it's winter in three days (officially) - the sun was out and although the air was a little cool - it was an awesome day for a ride. So I talked Bronwyn into coming to the forest with us - the two palominos hit the forest once again!

Garbo kept wandering off the track when I was trying to take a video or photo - but no harm in that really - quite funny actually - as you may hear - the two of us giggling in the video!

We went on my favourite track - it has about half and half uphill/downhill and flat. The flat part is where this video is shot (mainly) and it's nice and wide so we can ride side by side - and even get a nice trot in side by side, in a straight line, with no humps - which is exactly what Garbo actually really needs right now.

We are working on building up his back and hind end muscles. We are doing loads of massaging and stretches... and feeding him soy meal and amino acids etc.

The photo is a bit blurry - (supposed to be like that?!) - but it was so pretty with the sun coming through - just had to post it.
