[drivingpairs] Re: driving tandem/pairs

What a great discussion on bending away from the pole!  I've been  having a 
problem with a client's minis pulling so far away from the pole that  they are 
practically falling down!  We've adjusted the reins, re-adjusted  traces, 
switched sides, and come to the conclusion that they don't like what  they are 
doing!  So, back to single only for awhile until they are  comfortable again.  
It 
also helps to have properly adjusted equipment  (which this client doesn't 
have).
 
I took my ponies out for a drive around the neighborhood yesterday driving  
tandem. What a great drive.  Nice and relaxed trot, and just out for  fun.  I 
am preparing to drive a unicorn hitch this week, as I'll have  helpers.  My 
goal is to drive unicorn at a couple of BIG shows this year,  just to DO IT!  I 
have no illusions of being competative with the' big  boys' (fresians), but we 
are just a 'simple' country turnout more interested in  going down the road.
 
Happy & safe driving to all,
Trish Demers
