Day 2
This morning we had a really good practice. One of our additional ponies, Jack, lent by our new friend Steph, joined us. Julia clicked with him right away. Great match.
For a while we had six ponies going so I sat and walked around on the spare one while everyone warmed up and swapped around on the ponies, until it was time to get to coaching.
We started with some hand off drills and then moved through an assortment of races, getting used to the ponies and difference in equipment. After a good two hours we called it for the day and put the ponies back up.
We enjoyed lunch, trying new potato chip flavors, and had a good team meeting. We discussed the ride and ponies and what’s to come.
