the fastest I have ever ridden is a trot, but riding is WAY to expensive for us, we can barly afford food for ourselves and all the animals their is no was I will ever get to take lessons. I have ridden a huge horse once, but that was is toranto and my great aunt took me, cuz she has been riding 5 days a week since she was a little girl, and she is in her 60's now , I would LOVE to get to ride every 2 weeks, but I only get to go for a trail ride once a year, thats the most I get to ride we really cant afford anything more then that
