Not-So-Speedy Dressage
From Endurance to Dressage
I am such a girl. I try hard not to be, but I just can't help it. I like pink. It's a good thing I have only boys. If I had girls, everything would be pink!
I too have lots of pink barn things - buckets, longe line, longe whip, gloves, grooming tote. I also have pinkish-purple electrical tape to label all my flyspray bottles and randomness. It ensures that I (and all my barn mates) know which stuff is mine, which helps prevent things from getting lost.

Sarah - the photos were cute! You've also just given me a great idea! I was at Lowe's the other day and saw the coolest duct tape. It came in every color possible, even pink! I had a roll in my hand to buy, but I couldn't think of what to use it for. I love labeling things, but I hadn't thought to do it with duct tape. I now have a new project!
What is this "clean" of which you speak?

Clean is a relative term in my barn! There's new, cleaner than that one, and dirty. 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.
