1. We DO NOT need to show up with our hair combed, make up
on and wearing a clean shirt.
2. Moaning, groaning and complaining about aching muscles is perfectly acceptable
as is taking Motrin prior to a ride.
3. Helping someone on or off the horse does not mean the rider is
an invalid. It only means the horse got taller overnight.
4. No one will comment about how big someone's butt looks
in a saddle.
5. Everyone will wait, patiently, while someone dismounts
and adjusts equipment. Everyone will also wait, patiently, until that
person remounts and is ready to move on...no matter how long that takes.
6. When a horse is acting up we will accept that the horse is just
having a bad hair day and it is not the rider's fault.
7. Mentioning it is too hot, too dry, too humid, too wet,
too buggy, etc., is considered self expression, not whining.
8. Wanting to be first, last, walk or just stop does not mean the
rider is a wimp. Sometimes it is necessary to teach a horse who is in charge.
9. We will take the time to discuss the important issues of
the day like who is dating who, who is cheating on who and any other relevant information
which needs to be passed on.
10. We will acknowledge that horses are very strange animals and sometimes
for no reason at all we fall off of them. If this happens to any
rider the other riders will ascertain that the person is okay and then not
mention the incident to another living soul, especially husbands and significant
others.
11. We will acknowledge, without apology that riding more than 2
1/2 hours increases our grumpy level far more than any ego benefits we may get
from riding longer.
