I mean I KNOW they used to carry full grown men in metal armor, but i'm a big guy and am always affraid of hurting the horse! I don't weigh THAT much but its a mental fear I have of being too heavy for them to carry me.
Incidentally, I tried it for the first time in my life 2 years ago in Canada...I INSISTED on a Clydesdale or nothing at all....so they obliged after laughing at me....thankfully THOSE horses seemed strong enough to carry me....but I think i'd kill an Arabian LMAO!
Stay safe all.
Perfection does not exist. The question therefore, is: what level of imperfection are we willing to settle for?
