When I signed up for the horse riding trek, I told the organiser I was a beginner. Only later did he realise what I meant by that.
"Uh... you better get some lessons," he said.
So, Sunday was my first ride. It was just around the ring, but the instructor said she was very impressed. Years of correct posture and yoga paid dividends and I was trotting comfortably in no time at all. Next week I'll get up to cantering, and in a few weeks' time I'm planning a weekend trail ride and camp.
But for now, I'm getting very well acquainted with some new muscles.
