No bocking for me for a couple of days
I fell of the Horse on saturday 20-25 mph 16hands 3in up (thats 5ft 7in)
and I parted company with him and landed on my bum I won't post a pic it's just to horrible (and thats before the accident) it's swelled to almost double and it was big to start with
1 month bocking I havn't hurt myself 37 years riding and I hit the ground regularly
I think bocking is safer
Anyway if anyone is short of a backside I may have a spare if this carrys on swelling
At least it ballances my beer belly out
Can't wait for the bruise
-
Sounds extremely painful
Wouldnt want to be in your shoes
Get well soon
-
Ouch! :(
That must hurt.
Yeah i think bocking is so much more safer than people make it out to be, when i first went on them i was like 'woah im never gonna get used to these, theyre well dangerous' but now there so easy and safe lol
-
Thanks Webmaster
Feeling better today may be back on them for the weekend
-
get well soon ;D
-
Nice to see your sense of humor hasn't been damaged :)
-
Only thing that did'nt three weeks and I'm still black and blue and the doc says 8-10 weeks before the swelling will go ( also said I'm lucky to be walking ) but I am allowed to Ride and Bock so long as I don't fall on my back ;D
Ps thanks for the get wells

Jason, can we wrap you up in bubble wrap? LOL ;D
-

Heheheh horse riding is for GIRLIES! Kidding mate, I gave it up to play rugby more. Get some wonderpants with D3o in, they work a miracle.

I tried horse riding in cape town (first time rider, through sand dunes and the beach) is was a crazy experiance and I definately have respect for horse riders now as its actually harder than it look!
And just imagining falling off one is painfull...
-
Wait till you get thrown off one, when it comes to jumping, now that hurts!!

Like I said just the thought hurts lol

I was on a 16 hand 3" ( 5ft 7" to his back so add another 2 ft to his ears )Unruly youngster thats built like conans big brother , bareback ( no saddle so no stirrups and with a snaffel ( very soft bit eg no brakes )
Trying to teach him to change legs at the canter ( fast one approx 20-25 mph )
I did have a helmet on when we parted company my one good move
yeah I agree it is for girlies there much tougher and nastier that us softie boys ::)
The girlies from the stables once went to a Vandals rugby club do in walton they came back the next day and said rugby players can't keep up bit to quiet for the girls and not enough drink( I think they got thrown out for being to rowdy ) ;D
Oh and I know three girls who've had their pelvises split in half after a horse fellover backwards on them and they all still ride ( and I thought I was daft ) ???
you know after writing this I might take up Rugby it might be safer got any openings for a 6 ft 3" 17 stoner past his prime and with a busted wrist ;D
-
some horse related injuries can by very impressive, all what you need to do, is get back up, and straight back on, and off you go again!! ;D
-
when i went on work experiance the farrier who i was with had recently been kicked in the face...nasty
-
I agree the wife had a fractured eye socket from the same youngster ( head aches for 6 months just my luck ) :( and I've lost count of the amount of limps I've had over the years
But you should have seen all the sympathy I got down the stable with this wrist ( none at all :'( ) their a tough bunch
I think the kindest was "accident waiting to happen" ( that was me not the PJ's ) ;D
-
lol!

They are not nice at all!!!! Jason needs sympathy!!! 8)
-
I have tried of something sympathetic to say
honest I really tried...
Sorry Jason I just can't think
Just one thing thou can you carry a camcoder for when the next one happens :D
-
If someone wants to follow me round with a camcorder on a daily basis I think they might be able to make a decent living out of selling the footage to you've been framed ;)
And don't worry Naz most people I know run out of sympathetic things to say
( but they never run out of laughter , funny that ) :(
Thanks for defending me Sx Nutta but it's my wife that needs the support I enjoy being picked on ;D
