Pony pictures!
It wasn't entirely sunny today, but Mike took a few pictures with his phone of us with the new side saddle.
GB is definitely more comfortable and forward with it, which is good, and I think I did ok....
(Photos would, of course, be better if it wasn't slightly dull, and if the pictures weren't of a dark horse carrying a dark-clothed rider, against mostly dark-green background, as with this user pic, for example!)
It is, of course, very important to be elegant and lady-like at all times when riding aside....
These are about the best we managed, showing the two sides:
(I really need to clean my riding boots. I do *try* to only wear them for riding, but there always seems to be some reason (such as another horse's arse) why I need to walk over thegrassmud when I'm leading him to the school.)
I'm quite pleased with the effect of the nice new saddle cloth: the colour looks well on him, and with the saddle. Of course, the saddle being brown means that if I were ever to show him using it I'd have to get, sigh, a new bridle....
And one of Mike, just to prove that he does occasionally, briefly, ride GB too!

Side saddle is incredibly secure and some horse go better in a side-saddle, though with most the problem is keeping the weight off the horse's loins.
