Ada

Rode Ada again on Friday. Still (surprisingly) no spooks. Charlie had ridden her before me, and had been working on her dodgy right canter, so we had an amazing canter after a tiny crosspole on a 20 metre circle. It was Sienna who spooked at a little yappy dog and Nev who bombed off down the longside, so I was very pleasantly surprised. I love Ada now :)She's nice and forward going, and has lovely extended paces when she's pushed out. And, I've realised that I chicken wing when I jump, intead of pushing my arms and hands forward. This might be why I'm hunching my shoulders and looking just a little bit retarded :)

I have been cycling without my saddle and folding on the ground for ages now. My legs hurt.
