I love riding outside!

We finally got a course set up outside so it looks like that's where my lessons will be held for most of the summer :D

Everyone is much happier out there, and braver too!

I rode Brooke 2 weeks ago and had lots of fun:

And then last Friday I rode Leo outside and...well...it was interesting. He was a bucking fool up to every jump and we had a bunch of refusals...but I jumped him a 2'6" course!!

No video, but here are some pictures:

I always feel like this jump looks small...probably because it looks like it ends at the last board, when in reality the ground is at the pole in front of the jump [the board is up in the air a few inches]

:) Yes all looks nice.. Brooke looks good too..

I just love Leo's spots. He's so handsome. :D

That's great to have an outside course to ride. You get to enjoy the sun! :)

He really is! [now that I don't hate him so much I can appreciate his beauty hehe]

I'm so glad they finally set it up - this is my first year really riding outside. I love it, even though I'm allergic to the sun. :D

I like watching your videos! :D

Looks like a very nice course! :) Enjoy! Nice pics and video. :cool:

thanks, both of you :)
