Role models for me come from both the famous list, and the not so famous!
Famous-wise, I do admire William Fox-Pitt for his seeming unflappableness (I don't think thats a word, but you get my drift!), Ben Maher seems to be a very quiet rider, and Kelly Marks. Un-famous, my YO's Carole Taylor and Adalberto Barberini and my mum, without whom, I wouldn't have been so happy in life - its her that introduced me to riding at the tender age of 6 months
