Well, I have 3 children and I'm a single mum, so I don't really have time for much other than hacking (you guys call it trail riding I believe) and schooling. I ride English. I do own a western saddle but I don't know how to ride western, so when I use that saddle I still ride english in it, if that makes sense? I school while out on hacks though - I used to be very big into dressage so I guess it's in my blood - I don't seem capable of just lollopping along without doing SOMETHING, you know. I too am short - I'm 5'3", so she suits me down to the ground. Plus, 90% of our riding is through forest and ducking under trees - I would end up taking my head off on anything bigger

What do you do with yours?
