1st Horse Riding Lesson

So I just started to learn about horses.. I've always been amazed by the creature.. I finally got to enroll in a class that will teach me how to properly ride it...

The first class was just the basics of the horse.. different types and what not.. then it was the intro to the equipment.. the bridle, the saddle, etc... then how to properly hold the horse while getting on it... and finally how to move... basic forward, right, left and stop... rode around the 500m course for approximately an hour with a 5 min. break in between.

Tomorrow hopefully i'll learn how to change the speed (although I did change the speed often I still need to figure out exactly how it works)...

Long live horses...

Logic+intution sez that you'll make a very good rider (good drivers make good riders or vice versa).

Also , you'll jump ahead of the class and try to ride at breakneck speed(obviously you have never been introduced to this person called "Caution") in the not-too-distant-future.

Just watch.

And don't attack my driver-rider theory yet.
