I'd like to eventually get into eventing, but know nothing about it! So i have a few questions.
- What are the different levels? And jumping heights/dressage levels within those?
- Is 16 or 17 ish too late to start eventing seriously (the horse)?
- Anyone know where i can find out about events in my area? Websites or anything?
- How often would i have to practice on a XC course? Would once every 2 weeks be alright? Once a month?
I realise lessons are a must. Theres a local riding school that has SJ arenas, XC course etc and the instructor i'd use almost made it unto the olympic team at one stage, so thats a plus :lol:
I think thats all the questions i have for now..if i think of anymore ill add them here.
I'd really like to try this, though im not sure if i can financially :?
Maybe the year after next but i'd like to start before my horse gets much older.. I dunno.. ill see how things go
Thanks in advance for any questions answered
