My grandad said there are always gonna be a--holes, if ound that out monday as I was riding along the road some jerk came up behind us and leaned on the horn and Jackson broke in half and I did my best imitation of a skipping stone across a pond, unfortunately it wasnt a pond it was a blacktop roadhttp://www.baywindfarm.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=736&pictureid=8899&thumb=1 (http://www.baywindfarm.com/forum/album.php?albumid=736&pictureid=8899)

Nope, but a little old man stopped and help me get Jackson gathered up, and cussed the fool out like only a little old man can, it is probably a good thing the jerk didnt stick around or I might have ended up in jail

What a jerk!! Well, it's just more scars to impress the ladies!! ;) No....really sorry about the tumble, I hope everything heals up good, and glad you weren't hurt worse.

That is awful. I'll never understand jerks like that, but I know from experience they do exist. I just hope he gets his one day.
Hope you heal up fast.

Yep, there are arsewholes around every corner, some are bigger than others.

At least you are okay overall.

You just have to wonder why people think that would be a fun thing to do? Hope you will heal fast

I don't like trail riding on the road for that reason, when the stable goes on rides in the woods I'll go but when they go on the dirt roads I don't. Most people in cars or ATVs are very nice and go slow and try hard not to scare the line of horses but it just takes one and most of the riders are beginners so it's a little scary.

Feel better.

as ugly as it is the face is actually the least painful elbows and ribcage take the prize on that but overall I am ok, dern sure been hurt worse just cant remember when, and i am trying to keep my sense of humor about it all, just wondering how far it is gonna set jackson's training back

Ohhhhhh this just pisses me off to no end!!! Ouchy Ouchy I hope you take the time to heal up and not worry so much about trying to get back into Jackson's training ... he can wait.

Did you get checked out to make sure you didn't break/fracture any ribs? Asphalt and bones do not merge together very well!!! I'm so sorry to hear this ... your injuries and the delay in Jackson's training. Get well soon.

Some people just haven't had any upbringing :( Sorry you're in pain and I hope Jackson doesn't have a setback for it.

Karma does have a way of catching up to people. His time will come.

Good to know you and Jackson are okay and that all the A$$es in the world don't reside in New York State!

What an idiot! :mad: I don't understand people sometimes and their stupidity.

I'm glad you weren't hurt worse. Hope you heal up fast.

Well that sucks! I'm glad you didn't get hurt worse. As was mentioned above karma will catch up with that driver. I hope you heal quickly.

Glad your injuries weren't any worse! People are such jerks. I had someone pull a similar stunt on me over the weekend. Luckily I was riding my older mare, if not I probably would be suffering from a little road rash myself right now.

Ouch,that looks so painful! I often dream of having a handful of rocks ready to throw at jerks like that...most people are considerate but it only takes one idiot to cause a nasty accident like that. I hope you heal really fast...I'm also glad it wasn't worse...thankfully nobody was coming from the other direction. I HATE riding on roads. We have 1/4 mile to ride to get to a 3000 acre park. The trucks have nearly gotten me killed, so I sure understand your plight.

Oh wow, gabhainn! I bet when the driver saw what he caused, he was glad he didn't stick around too. ;) Feel better soon!

Ouch... I hope you heal quickly and jackson isn't scarred from it. I always fear that when I ride on the road.

besides looking like roadkill and having 2 cracked ribs I am okay. Jackson got a couple of days off and I rode him yesterday in the arena, and he seems settled this weekend when i can get a friend to go with me we will try the road...K
