Hi!

 

SD or the Swedish Democrats has had discussions where they disccuse if riding is a sport or not. They just explained that riding is not physicall and that the ridier mostly sits there and lets the horse do all the work and that it's not hard and so on. But in a matter of fact. If somebody thinks that riding is easy go and take a riding lesson or a tour on a horseback! Then tell me if you just sit there and if it's easy. 

 

In a matter of fact it's a lot about working together with something that at always is unpredictable that has a weight thats about 10 times as much as you and made up of a lot of muscle. Which more or less could crush you in a flash!

 

Here is a short little movie clip from SD. http://www.interasistmen.se/dumheter/sd-politiker-ridning-ar-ingen-idrott-da-den-inte-kraver-en-fysisk-insats/
