I think one of the biggest problems is people think that riders want to be on the roads, when the reality is as you said, none of us want to, but sometimes there's no choice. They have some superiority complex. An attitude they take where they think "horses shouldn't be on road", but we have as much right as they do to use them. Even with changes to the highway code that makes them legally more responsible, and gives vunerable road users right of way, some drivers still don't care. They're just impatient and can't wait a couple of minutes until its safe to pass 😔
I hate the roads were people go fast on! Also I love this video! And completely agree with your statement
They don’t realise that horses have more right to be on the road than any other “vehicle“
I do appreciate the people who either stopped or slowed down for the horses.
In early June when leading our 6 year old granddaughter along the narrow grass verge that leads to a byway, a "boy racer" came by and deliberately blasted the horn as they went to try and spook our pony (with a young child on board). Fortunately, the pony is relatively good in traffic and there were two of us (one leading and one walking beside) but the fact that this a**ehole was prepared to behave like that is indicative of the mentality of a minority of people when it comes to horses.
I got so excited when I saw that you have posted ❤
ahh thank you❤️❤️
Honestly what your friend said is 100% correct. A tabard or quarter sheet that shows you are filming makes such a difference. I hacked in the "polite" stuff for ages, couldn't believe the difference riding in a rider eye "filming" tabard made. I now have a young horse so bought a caution young horse tabard but got one of ridereyes quarter sheets that have the camera symbol on them. Worth a try!
PLEASE get that white car (was it a toyota??) reported for dangerous driving!! people like that are the reason roads are so dangerous
90% of drivers are sensible, it is the 10% you have to worry about, Rosie seemed to be more interested in snacking, than the cars.
I found myself waving and thanking the drivers that slowed down. Here in Nova Scotia 95% of the drivers go by as fast as they can. I’ve stopped riding on any paved roads now.
Oh. I can’t believe people are that ignorant to go by AS FAST AS THEY CAN when there’s horses! Thats awful.
I once rode on a busy main road but I didn’t think much about it ❤
Couldn't agree more, riding on the roads is only for necessity than because you want to be using them. Especially on country roads where you have blind corners etc, the standard of driving is scary these days and most (not all) have little patience or give very little thought of others behind the wheel. Always good to give a wave to those who do slow down and give plenty of space.
One thing it should be single file.... as a horse rider and owner myself don't ride dubled up. Xx
Single file can encourage close passes. I used to ride alongside my friends horse until I was sure the cars were slowing then get in.
The ginger horse is absolutely beautiful 😍
The colour is called Chestnut
I think his name is john or max or smth im not sure
It’s called a chestnut not a ginger
My Nan when she sees a horse on the road she completely stops and turns her engine off and radio all the way down
How mindful of horses! I love that! I send thanks to your Nan for trying so hard to not scare these beautiful animals. ❤
I remember seeing a horse with a roached main on this channel a while ago, so today I finally decided to roach my horse's mane because yours was so pretty😍
That was Dee or D!!
Hey, I'm new to your channel. Your horses are absolutely gorgeous looking. I have already subscribed, and I can't wait to watch more of your videos. And learn more about horses in general. Hope you have a lovely day
I was once told to remember drivers are on the road by lincense horses are on the road by right.
Nice video. Yeah I wouldn't ride on main roads I'd be too nervous incase cars didn't slow down. I prefer single track roads
In my opinion horse have more right of way on the roads because before cars we we’re getting to and from on horses in my driving lesson my old instructor told me to just drive past some horses but I pulled over till they passed me (I failed because of that) I now have a new instructor because I reported the previous one
There were some bleep drivers out there! Over 40 years ago when riding back from Epsom Downs towards Walton-on-the-Hill on a country lane I had a bad experience. It was a bitterly cold day with much frost. I had this twat driver that decided to rev his engine. Spooked the horse that I was riding. The horse dived into a 10'high hedgerow of brambles (blackberries) and plowed through the middle of it. Tried as best to keep my face down but emerged very cut up on my face and bleeding. Worst part was that it was so cold everything stung. Glad that didn't happen to you and enjoyed your latest video very much.
just the other week me and my friends were out on a ride and unfortunately we have to be on this small dirt road a l o t, on that day a giant truck came bombing up the hill way over the speed limit and just smiled while we signaled him to slow down. we had a 5 year old spooky pony with us, thankfully everyone was okay but it just sucks that people are so stupid when they drive.
Some of these drivers need to reread the highway code
I've never been on a hack before, but when you look back and see a very fast car driving up, please signal it to slow down. But i felt bad for Rosie. And that white horse and ginger horse are so cute🥺
sorry to correct but instead of “ginger” it’s chestnut :)
The problem with signaling for them to slow down is that it takes one hand off the reins, so you are less in control if the horse does spook. It's in the highway code that cars should slow down for horses, riders shouldn't have to remind them of that
ITS CHESTNUT
You should have a vest on that says "smile you're on camera" on the back! ♥
Wish the US would do this. Forget about bridle ways at all where I live. I'm lucky the neighbor farmer allows me to ride in his field
4:45 I would’ve cried 😭
It’s like 5 minutes away from my yard where we hack and even then people drive so reckless around horses and need to slow down
People just have no respect sometimes 😢I went on the road today I had a hole group of bikes come speeding by at about 60 mph it’s crazy I’m thankful most people around my area slow down
Is Rosie ok it looked like she backed unto the car and she freaked out
First!! Luv ur vids!! ❤ xx
Ur not first
@@whi_nova I thought I was-
When I was on the roads with my horse dipper there was a small blue car went full speed past us and dipper bucked and started to panic few minutes later I was on the floor and had broken my arm and ankle still in stirrup drivers pls drive slow around horses and riders
That ginger horse near you is so tall
he’s huge! I think between 17-18h?
ITS A FREAKING CHESTNUT GET IT RIGHT
@@Ameliathehorselover2calm down 😭
i love your Saddle Pads🤩
Ur so lucky to ride a horse I haven't even felt 1 😢😮❤
On my yard there lovely hacking but we use ROADS to get there and going around this corner is scary bc we can’t see cars or they can’t see us and some just drivers are STUPID
omg be safe also cute horses/ponies
Omg u went to South Park it’s so nice there aswell x
I don’t think i’ve ever been there if it’s a competition venue? x
The chestnut is he a Dutch warm blood? 😍
Try a really long schooling whip with something tied to thr end held directly horizontal so they have to pass, hold it out if you see them trying to get close so they have to swerve, sorry this happened to you both
I was hacking the other day on a country road with bends and a car zoomed past me at probably 40 mph. Luckily I was on a bombproof pony but if I was on my green youngster I dread to think what would have happened
I had two people try and play the game of slow down and then speed up while going past us, it was insane.
I always say thank you. I use hi viz and I’m always aware, my instructor is too.
Like ahh so annoying.
Luckily this village is very good with horses and they almost always slow down and drive that slow until they are completely past us and then they drive off.
In the usa we have the right roads and are you guys in the UK? Bc's if it's hard to ride on the left I feel bad. And I wish they made it the right roads in the UK.
It’s not hard to ride on the left? Everyone drives on the left here!
I WAS BOUT TO ASK FOR A FACE REVEAL OML UR SO PRETTYYYYYY
AND UR HAIRS LIKE A BLONDISH BROWNISH GINGER
Can you give me some tips on horse riding? Because I'm just starting?
which gopro do you use? xx
hi mollie i live in america i ride western here and i hack down the road at my dads house its sometimes a busy road in frount of it but usally its chill one day i took my mustang who i have had for 15 years i was riding down the road when a group of teenage boys in a car got right near me and my horse and started honking the horn at me eventhough i was off the road and they had enough room to pass and they just kept honking at me yelling things at me and it scared me and of course my horse got scared cause a car was chasing him and finally the drove off but doing soo they hit the gas really hard and it spooked my horse bad and i was shaking crying after it i just stopped and got off and walked him back to my barn which we wernt far from now do that expericene my horse has been traumatized and wont go on the road by him self he has to ride with my other horse ive been working on him little by little but it still haunts me to this day
That’s terrible. You should’ve tried to remember the license plate and called the police. I feel really bad for you and your horse.
@@AnnaPuppyfish after it happened i just was in shock and when i got back to my barn i was shaking i almost had a panic attack i wish i did remember to look at the license plate
@@kodyhunsaker5726 Yeah, It’s hard to remember that kind of stuff. I’m really sorry that happened to you.
People don't slow down for me they go past us by 60 its too scary we wear all the hi vis but they just don't care
The Derby is the famous flat race , so that was a joke lol
haha I literally couldn’t understand where it was coming from lol
I also rode Yesterday i almost Got trown of becuse of a car
I just lost my confidence yesterday, if anyone has any tips please let me know
Don't try to bully your self into riding on your own or doing anything you ate scared of. Get a friend to walk with you and just walk on a relaxed rein until you both relax. If you can't get someone to walk ( not ride) with you then try natural horsemanship groundwork exercises so you still have a relationship with your horse. You may feel better soon about riding but having a connection on the ground is just as rewarding. Keep safe.
I mean the GoPro
girl i live in the uk have any horse you dont want plz give
She doesn’t live in the uk
You should put one on the back of your head as well
I think they should have a horse sign by the side of the road or street
People do this on purpose just to get other people hurt it’s honestly just so immature
If riding on the roads is so dangerous why would you continue to use them🐎🥕🥕🥕🍎
because as I said some people have no choice, I have to use this road to hack to a competition venue!
Some people have to
Stupid comment. She made it very clear in the video why she is riding on the road, and horses are just as entitled to be there as cars. Idiot arsehole drivers just need to slow down, it’s not hard 😡
I’m just about to get my first horse and the yard I’m going to only has hacking, you only have the road for quite a while so I’m a bit scared! But my horse is really good with traffic and the road :)
Wow Crystal, you really don’t get it, do you 🤦🏼♀️
You should pass how you like
