#7 Don't be so sure about that. Your average horse is a flighty, jumpy, one and a half ton panic attack waiting to happen, who will run through a barb wire fence or slam you into a tree just because a paper bag rolled across the path in front of you. You better know what you're doing when you get on the back of the horse. If you leave it up to the horse...well, good luck.
