What's Your Riding Motto?

"hope for the best, expect the worst"

Good luck!

haha my barrel horse knows this every time I say it. Gets him pumped up. At the last barrel, when we get to it I scream "Get your a$$ around there!"

Yes, I have actually tried running the pattern without saying it, no where near as much of a kick. Heck if im just riding across the field and I say that, he whirls around like he's goin around a barrel and hauls a$$ back across the field.

Ride em' till the hair falls off.

"Feed Me Seymour!" An inside joke with a couple of riders and usually screamed inside the wings. Often followed by "Oh Sh*t!"

Neither has been uttered for years now.

I've got two: First, the common "Ride every stride.;" but second "any ride where you both come back at the same time is a good.ride."

"Go big or go home." That's the only one that's appropriate... my eventing team gets a little dirty-minded sometimes. Heh.

Sit up, kick on.

It used to be a bit of a mantra.

"That was terrifying! Let's do it again."
