Greetings from Middleage Spread,
Nine years ago when we bought our two fjords we did not
know any thing about horses or how to ride. We hired a
trainer and were told by both the trainer and the stable
owner where we were boarding that we could not ride without
boots with heels and a helmet. A year later went we went
out for our first solo ride without our trainer riding on a path
along a hay field, my sweet (but known to spook) Biscuit
did a little dance ending with a buck that tossed me over her head,
as I was looking down on her ears I thought," Well I can
let go of the reins now." Helmet was cracked.
So yes we wear helmets always. Simple reason is not so
much about ourself but that we have made a promise to our
horses that we will do what ever we can to see to it that
they are always taken care of.
I want to make a poster for our barn, just a simple photo
of a helmet with the caption underneath "GOT BRAINS"
