Erin sat in the saddle, watching Ryce on Cobalt.. She blushed, thinking of him.. "Come on Indian," she nudged him into a walk, going to the arena fence. " Nice job on that barrels, Ryce!" She cheered.

"No, it's when you cross a zebra and a donkey," she told Kumo.

(Ooo!! Want me to add a crush?)
"Thank ya, we waz just leaven." Ryce smiled half heartedly towards her. He rode Cobalt out of the ring towards the barn.

Indian tossed his head and walked on, like he was told. He snorted as he walked with another toss of his head.

[TheFabulousHorse]

(I said in her forums so yush..)
"Mind if I try?" She asked, her black velvet hat sitting loosely on her head.

[ShadowStarFang]

(Oh... Oops... My near concussion points it's fake finger at me and laughs. I have been so forgetful you will have to excuse me... That's kind of why I want people to look over the front...)
"It's all yours!" Ryce called behind his shoulder.

Indian took off on Erin, thinking that she told him it's alright to go. He snorted as he went on the far side of the barrel, went around the other barrel's far side, and then to the top barrel, going around the near side and racing back home. He slid to a stop and snorted, stomping his right hoof.

Posted twice.. Oops!

Erin stayed in the saddle, sitting straight. She remembered the rule her instructor always told her when rounding the barrel, horn, bellybutton, back of saddle. She loved the feel of the wind in her face, noticing how fast Indian was. Now, they were heading home, as her instructor used to say. Her hat still sitting on top of her head when they slowed to a stop, outside of the arena.
(Its ok. I wasn't sure if it was important..)

[ShadowStarFang]

(What important? People looking at the front? Well, just if they don't think it's York date.)
Indian snorted. This girl was taught the basics of barrel racing, not the advancements.
(I ride western, which makes this fun!! I know what to do!! Yippe!)

[TheFabulousHorse]

I ride western too but I'm like and advanced beginner because I don't ride regularly..))
Erin patted his neck. "Nice job boy," she praised him. "I'm going to have to work on my barrel racing skills," she looked at Ryce, " All that time away from horses didn't do me very well.." She flicked her hair behind her shoulder with her left hand, smiling at Ryce..

[ShadowStarFang]

(Lol nice. Well, for barrels, you hold onto the horn and lean in. It helps keeps the horse balance. Keep yours eyes ahead of you to where you want to go. Also, start the turn wide so you can come in close or otherwise you you start in close and make your turn longer than it should be. A few things might not be practiced at your stable, but that's what I know. Your a novice basically? I am an experienced rider. That's how I got my Near concussion is from getting bucked off my horse bare back...)

Indian tossed his head jerking the reins, being her back to the present. He snorted and trotted around the ring.

[TheFabulousHorse]

I actually started riding on an untrained horse.. I got bucked off so many times but I always got back on and the horse, I should actually say pony or mini because she was a size b miniature.. My mom got her for me when I was 2 or something around there..)
Erin looked at Indian, and held the reins as he started trotting around, slowing him to a jog. Indian was a nice horse, but she needed to get out of her habits of letting the horse decide everything.. Erin slowed ghim to a walk, letting him know she was boss before trotting again.
