Before you ride
- 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.
- Ask about helmets. Many stables lend riding helmets. Ask whether they have one that fits, or bring your own riding helmet.
- 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.
