Please post all about your drives here. And don't forget to add our favorite part...pictures!

Here's the offical 2024 hours page. Just a few notes to make it a little easier for me to keep track of the hours. Please post the horse driven and the total time driven at the very beginning of your post. I'm also going to make a "2024 Driving Discussion" thread so we can put all the fun...

Okay I'm overwhelmed and at a breaking point. If anyone is looking for a driving mini I have 3 that must go. One Mare that will make a great CDE horse for an experienced driver. Two geldings that are easy drivers and go well single or as a team. I'm in Utah but always up for a road trip. I just...

Here's the 2023 driving thread. I'm off to finish adding up the hours on the 2022 thread. My computer has been on the fritz so I'm a little behind. Happy Driving everyone!

Here we go! I've got to finish logging 2021 this week but I figured I'd better start our 2022 driving time thread. Happy driving everyone!

A while ago I though there was a thread that mentioned clamp on stirrups for sulky/bike type carts. I don't remember if it was aftermarket or just the ones that came with the HyperBike. I'm rebuilding my sulky and the current position of my stirrups kills my hips. Looking for a solution that...

Look what's on its way! I custom ordered this amazing buggy bag to attach to the dash of my cart. This size will hold my Yeti cup and a cup for a friend. She does water bottle size too. So excited!!!

It's official, I'm overwhelmed trying to keep up with 6 minis. If anyone is looking for a driving mini or knows anyone who is I have a few. They aren't registered but they are fun to drive. I may also be willing to meet as far as half way for transport. Anyway... Keep me in mind if you know of...

I really want to work with my minis on their dressage and gait transitions. I'm running into a bit of a wall trying to find anyone local. Does anyone have any good online or video/dvd recommendations?

I'm going to try doing our driving time on just one spreadsheet for the whole year this year. It will be much easier for everyone to see their totals at the end of the year instead of having to add times from 4 spreadsheets. So my question is this. Do you want driving and ground driving time...

It's here! 2021 calls for a new driving hours thread. Here's to hoping for more driving and less mask wearing and physical distancing. I'm starting us off with driving our team of Fjords. Doesn't count for mini hours but we're trying to work through some things with Ferb so we spent about 3...

Who has trained their minis to do tricks? I don't have much time to drive while being mom to a new baby so I would like to find new things to do with my minis here at home. Any good training resources or ideas of other fun things to do with my minis would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hm.... I had no idea this was the proper way to trim a minis feet. My dad decided to help me trim a few of the herd today after he finished his riding horses. Good thing we have good horses.

Does anyone give their minis coconut oil? What benefits have you found if any?

My 20 yo gelding has become difficult to keep weight on. He's had his teeth done by an equine dentist regularly and is wormed as needed. He gets grass hay 2x per day with the rest of the minis and he gets just over 1/2# if senior feed per day. I'm switching to Nutrena Safe Choice today. I liked...

I love my farrier for my riding horses. I've never had him trim my minis before because I've always done it myself. I was trimming my big guys long before I got minis. However, I had to switch my gelding to shoes for hoof health reasons (go figure) so I got a farrier. And he's great. Last year...

It's that time! And this year I was so excited to see what was under that winter fuzz on my two new guys. Please forgive the poor haircuts. I clipped them dirty as I only have icy cold hose water to bathe with and I left them a little longer than usual since I clipped earlier. Blue is a blue...

My 10 yr old mini driving mare is a hot headed little thing. Lately she's had more attitude and I'm wondering if anyone has experience using mare or calming supplements with moody mini mares. Just something to take the grumpy edge off. I've had her checked out by the vet and she's not in any...

Vander Veen is producing 4 carts. One is sold. Look them up on FB if you want one of the 3 left. They don't make them on a regular basis anymore so I thought I'd give you guys a heads up. I really really want one but am short on $$ with the new baby. I've heard nothing but good things.

okay... What type of setup do you use to attach the end of this team pole to the horses to suspend it? It's the pole for my Jerald Viceroy.
