    Re: [RC] different saddle before ride - Truman Prevatt


    Since your are doing 25 I would not worry too much, if the saddle fits the horse. I don't think I'd do 50 on a new saddle no matter how well it fit simply she would probably move differently (maybe better but still different) and 50 miles could make her sore.

    You on the other hand, you'll get over being sore:-). Just make sure you don't get too tired and unbalanced.

    Anyway I've decided to use a different saddle rather than try and cure poor fit with the SKito. Jenni's back has too many white hairs growing in for me to ever put this saddle on his back again.

    Problem--I have a ride this weekend. I borrowed a treeless Icelandic saddle from a friend and plan to ride in that. Today I'm doing a long ride to see if it's gonna work out. If it doesn't fit I will have to pull from the ride.

    Any caveats about using a "new" saddle before a ride? I notice it sits me differently so I am sure I'm gonna be sore. (I'm only doing 25 miles).
