A discipline you would like to do that you’ve never done before

19. A discipline you would like to do that you’ve never done before

I’m pretty diverse as it is, but I would like to be even more so. I’d really like to drive. I have a partially trained driving mule, but I doubt she’ll be finished for that any time soon.

I’d also love to do endurance. Given my old knee injury (kicked by a horse years ago), I have a hard time doing long rides so I’d probably max out at 25 miles, but I think I could do those pretty easily. I’ve gone on 15 mile gpsed rides in the last few years and finished those with a fresh horse and bearable knee pain. The real stumbling block here has actually been having a trailer to get to rides. However, we’re working on that so maybe this year.

Finally, I’d like to really do sidesaddle. I had a cheap/crappy sidesaddle that Dijon tolerated because he tolerates everything, but it was not great for either of us. Mostly it was too small for my leg to fit in. I’d like to buy a really nice sidesaddle and take some actual lessons to be good at it.
