They are quick enough to shake their fists at us bike riders for making too much noise and frightening their horses.
Roads are too busy these days for horses, the government banned handguns for no valid reason, let's ban horses next. |
Seconded - it scares me that on small, almost single track roads you have adults, and oftern young children, piloting something which can be uncontrollable....many on roads which have 50 and 60mph speed limits and without any need for insurance etc..
and unlike a cyclist, you cannot take easy evasive action, and give a wide birth, because of the risk the horse will react.
Who would be at fault if you rounded a corner, at 40 in a 50, and ran straight into the back of one? I am surprised we dont hear more about it..keep horses where they belong, off the road!
