is super sensitive about saddle placement (in fact I'm pretty sure that's why
he bucked me off in January). If it's
too far back he bucks. If it's too far
forward he bucks. And by "too
far" I mean a quarter of an inch!!
I've been calling him Princess Pea (or Prince Pea) when he does this,
but today when I was doing the quarter inch adjustments it occured to me that
perhaps Goldilocks would be better - "This saddle is too far
back!" "This saddle is too far
forward!" "This saddle is just
right!" Though
I rather like Prince Pea as a silly-boy name.
He's getting better.
Didn't actually buck today, but made it clear he would if I didn't fix
things. Then when it was finally just
right he was a very good boy!
So what do you think? Prince Pea or Goldilocks?
