Adair, What I was thinking/wondering is how green her horse was as well as how fit he was. With your boy, he came to you as an experienced driving horse, so had driven enough to have developed the muscle and balance and other skills to be comfortable with the cart, even if he wasn't currently...

You are welcome. I hope some of it helps and hopefully others will chime in too. Maybe get him some cross training going. Lunge him doing lots of transitions, no just going round and round. Add some cavaletti and or jumps...and drive him too. It takes time to build the muscle needed. I think...

Thoughts and prayer sent for your girl. We love having her 'here' and watching her grow with you guys. Please keep up updated. Hugs to your son. I have a young horse helper here and can imagine how hard it is on him. Angie

Hi Ann, A few questions, how big is your mini, how old, and what is his current fitness level. I don't think you are too big for him to pull, we just need to get you tweaked a bit. I think you may want to shorten your shafts a bit more. And I agree with Adair that you need to raise your...

Gorgeous! Thanks so much for the update. She is going to be awesome. Please, please, please keep us updated If not here (I think here is fine)Are you on Facebook? Angie

My mare is 35.5 inches and my gelding is 34.5. My shaft have a bend for a 35 inch horse. My daughter has used my Aero with her 36" gelding with no problems. I agree with Adair's suggestion of contacting Jack at Driving Essentials or Carriage Machine shop. I went through Jack and he was great to...

I also have a lighted cover and LOVE it. I can read it just fine even if it is the only light in the room Angie

I am glad to see you answers! I went ahead and ordered one from Amazon- a Sigma BC 1009...it was like $20...I have mine mounted but other than me pulling my cart around- haven't been able to try it as we just had a hay barn brought in and a little weather called Hurricane Irene. I also bought...

I want to put a bike computer on my Aerocrown to keep track of my miles/time. Does anyone here use one, what do you recommned and are they hard to install? Thanks Angie

Leia, Great write up- I felt like I was right there with you. What an educational night for you guys. I sounds like everyone had fun though. Seems like this would make a nice children's book, this saga, about learning to work as a team....maybe Watcheye could illustrate....I'd buy it...

Great job! You both look great Leia gave you great suggestions on adjustments. Have fun with it and keep us posted with more pix. I love mine Angie
