WOWZERS!!!!!!! Check out this driving video at World Equestrian Festival CHIO Aachen 2008. BTW...no one was hurt.http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/news/article.php?aid=264073&aff=rssI am in the process of learning to drive....my 29.5 inch mini mare and let me tell you...even in the mini, there's a lot of power there, should she decide to bolt. A few months ago, I attended a Steve Woods driving clinic and had the opportunity to drive a double team, it felt like raw power in my hands, it kinda wigged me out....all the horse power felt through the reins. I think I'll stick to my 250 lb mini. HAHA! That man was very brave and he does deserve that medal, lucky no one was hurt.
