Not-So-Speedy Dressage
From Endurance to Dressage
Please tell me your laundry pile looks like this. Riding wear on the left, normal clothes on the right. Admittedly, last weekend's laundry pile was slightly unusual as I had the week off from work which meant I wasn't wearing work clothes. Even so, on a normal work week, my non-riding pile isn't very big. In fact, I own more riding clothes than non-riding clothes. Either I need to quit shopping for breeches, or I need to start shopping for real clothes.
Honestly, what's in your laundry basket?

LOL! Mine is similar, but I luckily get to work in a very casual office environment, so jeans & a tee shirt are my work clothes, & I just wash everything together with a LOT of odor eliminator! :D 4/8/2018 07:25:07 am
I wear jeans to work too so I do the same thing! LOL Even so, my riding clothes outnumber my work clothes. I can re-wear jeans. :0) 4/6/2018 11:30:24 am
I keep a separate laundry basket for riding clothes. I general rewear things as much as possible and try to do regular laundry once a month or less. The riding gear gets washed more often than my regular clothes because they get sweaty and dirty and can't get reworn as much. 4/8/2018 07:26:05 am
Once a month?!?!?! How do you have enough pairs of undies? lol Comments are closed.

About the Writer and RiderI am a lifelong rider.
I began endurance riding in 1996 where I ultimately completed five, one-day 100 mile races, the 200-mile Death Valley Encounter, and numerous other 50, 65, and 75 mile races. I began showing dressage in 2010. Welcome to my dressage journey. About Speedy GSpeedy went from endurance horse to dressage horse. After helping me earn a USDF Bronze medal in the summer of 2020, he is now semi-retired. Speedy is a 2004, 15'1 hand, purebred Arabian gelding. His Arabian Horse Registry name is G Ima Starr FA.
About IzzyIzzy was started as a four-year old and then spent the next 18 months in pasture growing up. I bought him as a six-year old, and together, we are showing at the lower levels. He is a 2008, 16'3 hand warmblood gelding. His Rheinland Pfalz-saar International (RPSI) name is Imperioso.
