After a couple of recent rides with my RI and on my own with the Ziglet, I have to announce that he is not a project any more. He is the fun, safe little hack I wanted.
He goes at the speed I want, where I want. He is the most dextrous and surefooted weaver through the woods and brambles and over the ups and downs - the original All Terrain Pony.
Today we had a long fast canter and then ambled along on the buckle. I can ride him past anything and through anything while taking off my jacket, if I choose.
He is innocent of outline and bend, and he still goes into conniptions at the sight of a coloured pole, but that's another story. Fortunately we don't encounter many coloured poles while we are out and about! As far as hacking goes he is the Finished Product. And I luff him :inlove:
He will probably buck me off next time we go out, or spook at a dustbin, but that's hubris for you!
