Just call me "Dude"!

I have a friend who owns a "dude" ranch in Arizona, and I decided to fly out there this September, and spend a week, riding the trails. Have only been on a horse three times in my life, and this will be an adventure!!!

Get yourself some longjohns, not for the cold but to help reduce saddle sores. :ernae:

Great advice, thanks!

NC, you might also start doing the following exercise: Part you thighs 8-10 inches, then use your hands to keep them open as you try to close them. Saddle soreness was never as uncomfortable for me as how badly my thighs ached the next day. You won't realize it, but you'll be squeezing you thighs together to get a 'better grip' on the saddle. I haven't been on a horse since I sold my seven about 14 years ago.

BTW, that looks like a great place to visit. Unfortunately, da wife wouldn't agree.
