western riding stables

We arranged for a Horse Back Riding Experience at the Western Riding Stables. Our party gave the heights and weights of our party. On two of the horses, the saddles were ill fitted. As I was riding a horse directly following the owner I pointed out that one of the stirrups was ill fitting and asked what could be done. He muttered some words and proceeded onward. What was especially perplexing was the fact that he was riding very quickly leaving the other members of our party behind along with this assistant. He proceeded at this pace notwithstanding the fact that his assistant was yelling for him to stop (she dropped her reins). Later I began to experience pain in my knee. The horse that I was on was a very frisky horse and I had last rode a horse 2 years ago.. In any event, I indicated to the owner that I had to get up the horse and did so. He refused to have a horse switch, took my horse and made me walk. The owner had no regard matching the skill level of the rider with the horse selected. He was obsessed with getting back to the base as quickly as possible and blamed us for being late (it took him 45 minutes for him to start the rider after we got there).To think, not only did we tip him before the rider, we bought a sandwich for him as well. Avoid this attraction at all costs
