    ★★★★★ Brandon, Apr 2016

Before you ride

  1. Wear long pants and boots with a small heel. Jeans stop the saddle rubbing your legs, and a heel keeps your foot from sliding through the stirrup. Sandals and flat sneakers are a poor fit.
  2. Ask about helmets. Many stables lend riding helmets. Ask whether they have one that fits, or bring your own riding helmet.
  3. Ask about rider rules. Each stable sets its own limits on age, weight and riding experience. Ask before you book so nobody in your group is turned away.
