RE: [RC] Training to cross suspension bridge - Ranelle Rubin
Leigh,
I have taken many a horse (around 15 or so?) across that bridge for the first time. None of them have had any issues. I of course am always leading them. Tell your friend not to worry about it..nothing but a thing..! It really does not even move that much.
