Yup. Yup. Then there was the time I was trotting down the road (English tack) and got out of sync. Bump, bump, bump bump and on the fifth bump slid right outta the saddle onto the ground.

Was stupid really......the other folks just couldn't figure out how it happened. One minute upright and going along fine, next minute on the ground alongside the horse with him looking at me like "way to go, stupid". If he hadn't been a gelding already, he woulda been right then and there.
