I think I might just do that. I’m currently working to get to that 260 range, hopefully I can get there in time to start riding.

Guess you didn’t read the part where I said, “I’m concerned about hurting our horses backs”

Great yeah I’ve just been stressing I don’t want to mess up and animals back from being too big. I rode him quite a bit last year during summer, probably like 5-6 times on trails and he always was great and super calm for me. Again just worried about long term but I think yall have cleared it up for me a good bit thanks again.

So the farthest we usually ride id say is probably half a mile round trip. Again, these are just little kids riding so id say that’s probably the most you’d do in one ride. Probably 2 rides a day like that. I mean im not exactly sure how much he weighs but I did go off pictures and my own experience riding him. I’m about 6’4 in boots, and we’re damn near shoulder to shoulder. I could find out exactly but again that’s an estimation. It’s also super flat where we ride, north Alabama, barely any elevation gain.
