    I wouldn’t go close behind any horse I didn’t know because all horses are capable of kicking, it’s an integral
    part of their language.

    What the hell is wrong with people dosnt matter if its a mare or gelding if its a kicker make it known. What's happened to riding etiquette. Whats wrong with people getting in single file as a horse passes. Rant over well done Tara.

    That rider should be reported to the group organiser if riding a kicker without a red ribbon. That could be very dangerous. Glad you are nearly back I would think Bellas legs are getting tired after plodding through all that mud for miles. Well done to both Bella and yourself Tara 🐴🐴🐴

    I misunderstood...I thought you said you and Bella would just hang at the back when she asked if you wanted to pass. The next thing I saw was Bella and you sort of tailgating then passing between them. I guess i was confused. But, yes, everyone should feel safe in the company of other horses and riders. Thankful all was well. Great videos of a tough ride...flies, thick mud, and iffy tempered horses...but, a learning experience for me. Best to all!

      Tara decided to go past them, because there was a horse that was a kicker, at the back of the group. The girl said to Tara, it was a kicker. But her horse, didn't have a red warning ribbon in it's tail as it should have. Tara wanted to get away, from that horse / group of horse's. 😘

I think Farouk was so fast once the horse only got a glancing blow! Again horses without red ribbons! I’m glad on this ride the person at least warned you before you got too close! Who knows how Bella would have reacted as she is new to these group rides! Bella did great but will be tired from dodging the flies and transversing all the boggy fields!

    In the Carpathian Mountains they tie red ribbons on their horses' tails and in their manes. They also hang long red tassels just under their ears on their bridals. A bit like earrings. It looks very jolly. I do not think it has anything to do with kicking though.

      No, horses bucking and kicking shows either a sign of discomfort and can also be used as a warning before damage is done, horses use it as a defence mechanism as well. It is built in it and it is cruel to train them to not do something that nature has taught them to do
