... and you're willing to spend more on riding tights than on a
dress.
...you have more riding shoes than dress shoes.
...your desses have to long enough to cover the sores behind your
knees.
...you know your helmet & glove size.
...you can find you trail sponge at a hard gallop, but the mop is
hopelessly lost somewhere in the house.
...you are thrilled to share your lunch with horse who hasn't been
eating until now.
...your family spends most of their vacation time riding/crewing.
...buying hay by the ton wins over new carpeting in the house.
...you'll leave work in an instant to pick up hay as they bale & save
$$$ for ride entries.
