We are horse riders- you don't have to understand us! Real riders believe in the 11th rule: With the inside leg and the outside rein. We know that all external medicine is either waterproof, blue or yellow. We have no problem eating a sandwich directly after mucking stalls. We know, why a thermometer has to have a string attached to the end. We don't think anything sexual if someone talks about chains, whips or leather. We can lower our voice instantly by 5 octaves to shout at a horse pawing at the floor. We would sooner quit a relationship than our hobby. We talk to our car to make it up the hill. We have better insurance for our horse than our car. We know more about our horses diet than our own. We buy grain and hay before buying our own food. We have less to wear than our horse. Its common to see us wearing riding clothes in public our hobby is creating more work than our job. And we know that mucking a stable is the best cure for depression.
