well it is waiting at the post office- unfortunately I can't collect it until Saturday as the box is too big to carry on the 15 min walk complete with Beth as well :rolleyes: but at the weekend I will be able to play with it! :D Hopefully should be the end of battling with saddle fit, the idea being that not only can I ride Rupert in it but if Pablo does get there with his riding (and we really are closer than ever before) then I can ride either Pablo/Alfie in it too :)

Have been cleared by the Dr as fit to ride after my Caesarian so long as I am sensible.

Rode Alfie on Sunday! Will post photos tomorrow. First ride on Alfie and first ride Treeless and I enjoyed both! Armchair cob + treeless saddle = extremely comfortable ride!:)

Sounds wonderful! I'm going to borrow a Barefoot Cheyenne from my local saddler to try Dolly in (provided she passes the vetting!) so it's good to hear from someone else who has tried it! Any reservations about it?

Alfie has the Arizona (the western one), I haven't tried my Cheyenne yet but it looks nice. No reservations so far with the Arizona.
