Well this has been a hot one here in AZ this year. Time you get done riding your going around doing the bull legged walk because your back side is so wet from the saddle. But I wouldn't give it up for nothing. Out early in the morning before any one else is around or up. smelling the dirt, and the sweat from your horse. and just breathing it in. And this is why, I keep in shape, or at least work really hard at it. I hope all of you, are doing the same, if its arena riding or trail riding, Just keep riding, to where you want your weight loss journey to end. Happy Trails
