I've sure enjoyed this thread.  I am very new...still just ground driving my 
pair until I receive my pairs harness and vehicle(which I am still looking 
for...small pony size).  I have already noticed how much more confident my 
gelding is beside his partner.  I think it's going to be so much more fun 
driving this guy with his Mom.

Great information...

Sit in the driver's seat, decide where you want to go and let the 
distractions of life pass by while you stay focused on your intended 
destination, enjoy the journey!  ~Barbara & Nicholas Kurtz
