Riders Recommended
Horse and riding equipment is expensive and its important to do some research before investing in new items.
Scoping Things Out
Riders Recommended has a solution to help with the research. It is a clever site that allows horse people to recommend products that have performed well for them.
Actual Feedback
It’s not a site filled with advertisers trying to promote their own products, the recommends are all from bona fide equestrians.

Make A Balloon Horse
I thought this video was kind of fun and who doesn’t enjoy a nice English accent voice over? It may only be useful for those who intend to be circus clowns (don’t do it), but it could be a handy party trick.
The instructions are simple and look easy enough to follow and the demonstrator is full of enthusiasm. Enjoy.
