If you didn’t have the chance to ride the XC course at WEG, here’s your chance to experience the thrill from the safety of your living room sofa. Peter Atkins has treated us all to another of his “helmet cam” rides and invited us along to live vicariously through him. I’d certainly want a horse like Henny if I ever wanted to jump a solid obstacle larger than 3′!
I love the way Peter rides, especially how he gallops. His horse always looks so balanced and relaxed. When I was working on my remedial galloping practice this summer I had a picture of a horse galloping like this in my head.
And to give you the view from the crowd.
Thanks for posting the helmet cam video! Peter is such an amazing rider, and it’s great to get a perspective of the ride by the pro. Certainly give one something to aspire too.
