I do wonder why horse riders do not have to clean the crap off the road whereas other pet owners do. Let's face it, there's usually a lot more of it. Maybe it has something to do with the Royal Family enjoy horses - or maybe the logistics!
I've known a lot of horse riders injure themselves, some quite seriously, but it seems the worse injuries are suffered by the more experienced riders who push themselves on hacks or expect road users to know how to behave appropriately (I think some people don't know a horse always has a right of way from laws set a very long time ago). I'd feel safer on a bike than a horse riding down the road, although not sure if I was jumping fences ![]()

That said i quite like horses and have no problem with them being on the road. They may cause a few jams occasionally but no more than the granny doing 20 in a 60. Nice and easy to overtake aswell ![]() However i do have a problem with them fouling the roads. No reason why they can't fit a horse nappy of some description! The local stables are quite good and do make an effort to clean the road along the routes they use so fair play to them. Most other areas are a disgrace! |
