Has any other #horse rider learned to shake left hands with other #equestrians instead of right (like an homage to the left-hand-side tradition with horses proper), or is that just a thing in my area? #riding #horseriding

A few days ago, a question on #wordweavers makes me wanting to draw young Esther riding her poney

Last presidential election, I went off on a horse ride to calm my nerves...how I wish I had the time to do that now...

Gossip!

Here's a description of a 'safety skirt' for lady horse riders from the Launceston's 'Colonist' newspaper in 1889. I think I kind of get how it was supposed to work, but pants seem a lot easier.

I've just had a minor revelation.

I always thought that when women rode side-saddle they just sat sideways on a normal saddle. But turns out there's a special pommel to hook one leg over. It was hidden by the skirts so I never realised. This made it easier to control the horse and go fast without wearing pants.

I think this is what started the rot that led to women riding astride and then driving cars and having opinions.
