Trail Ride

[horsey_girl2003]

Been seeing flyers for a benefit trail at Greenwell State park. Anyone know anything about it? How are the trails? Is it fun?

Thank

Song just popped in my head

"heyyyyy lemme ride that donkey donkey"
"heyyyyy lemme ride that donkey donkey"

Or something like that

Anyway, not much help with the trail riding thing. The last time I rode a horse, he started gradually speeding up until I had to bail off at full speed. Was my ex-wife worried about me? NOOOOOOOOOO! She was PO-ed cause I "could've hurt the horse"

How long will it take - couple hours or longer. I am into long fast riders, I have a large draft who can really move. I checked out the website but found nothing about the trail ride.

Bet he's not as big as appy's.

I have a Shire mare - 18.3 hands, weights 2200 lbs, black with white feathers. She is a really sweetie. That is a hand short of the tallest horse in the world - Goliath.

According to Guiness World Records, confirmed the prestigious title on July 11 to a man in Texas. If he is 20h, you might want to give them a call. Attached is my cousin riding Lady.

There have been some "big" horses, but not all have been verified by Guiness. Some of these (like Samson) were huge. http://www.ruralheritage.com/horse_paddock/horse_large.htm

You better get him back in shape before you take it public there. He'll be worth some $$$$

Shelley,

Most on that list are not verified by Guiness, simply boasts.

There is gonna be some POed Texans once they get a load of Appy's.

Guess you won't be selling him now but if you need some help, I have a lot of experience with drafts.

That is a BEAUTIFUL horse! I desperately want a horse, unfortunately, only have enough land for two fat pigs.
