This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Carol- Sounds like you & your Fjords are having a wonderful time! We usually ride ~ 6 miles, couple times a week. If we had more workout time, we could increase the horses' fitness and go longer. I don't like to push it. Brigid "Tommes" & "Rafael"

Driving distance
This message is from: carol j makosky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi List, 1st I must tell everyone how much value the list is to us new horse owners. I've learned so much from all of you and cannot thank everyone enough for all the input. So here is a BIG THANK YOU And now it is time for a new discussion. What is a reasonable distance to drive in a days outing? I know there must be a lot of things to consider such as: hills, weather (hot and humid), condition of horse, weight being pulled, etc. I have been doing between 5 and, once only, 10 miles. I would love to hear from you experts. -- "Built FJORD tough" Carol M. On Golden Pond
