Be Professional.  Look Cool. It is the duty of ever horseman, to share his knowledge. We aim to share our journey :)

Back to work tomorrow sadly. I got the farm locked down for winter, Lu ripped the last of the veggies, I prepped the lake “which has about 5,000 of these random fish that came from nowhere” for winter and built a scarecrow for Halloween that Luisa HATES!

Lu also took the boys shoes off and trimmed. Marengo looks AMAZING and Tequilas pretty dam good too! FULL REVIEW on how the hoof care stood up coming soon.

Back for just over 24hours and already I miss the road terribly. It’s so quiet. The bed is so big and warm it feels strange. I keep waking up because I can’t hear the boys chewing next to me. I keep thinking about this year’s adventures not just this last one but our one in Bulgaria too. I’m happy to say Neky is now successfully guiding clients on longer rides there and I’m just so happy to have been a part in helping her discover more opportunities to share wild places and horses with other folks. That’s what it’s all about for me. Sharing our love of horses and adventures.

So now comes work. I’ve got a million people to reply too, but more importantly I’ve got to download the data from this trip into positive growth on the saddles. For long riding… our long rider saddles as used by us on this trip were perfect. But I’m going to make them flawless. We rode very light on this trip and I think that’s the absolute key to success. So, I have designed my first “cavalry saddle” which is slightly lighter and more versatile than the long rider saddles. I’ve also been working VERY hard behind the scenes with some endurance riders to create a new type of endurance saddle. And… I think it’s pretty bad arsed. These products will be available for sale real soon!

As promised… I’m going to invite the controversy. No helmets, no high vis, just two entire bottles of vodka in a Kazakh village with some incredible people. I was absolutely WASTED. But somehow managed to mount my Kazakh stallion at sunset ba****ck and charge mobs of wild horses. Yes, this is real. Yes, I will happily gallop ba****ck blind drunk on a horse whose heart intertwined with mine. I have no fear of death, just a fear of never having lived.

When it’s my time to die, I will go head held high, singing my death song.

FINAL CALL FOR A 25€ CHANCE AT ANY BPLC SADDLE UP TO 2700€!!! Drawing it 5pm Friday! Details in pinned post! But let’s check out these horses after completing the following in BPLC saddles. 1750km / 1100miles in 55 days across 3 countries. 8 crossings above 2500m, countless over 1500m.Shortest day. 7km. Longest day. 60km. Longest time under saddle in one day. 8hours 20mins “lunch break of 2 hours given”. Speed. Top speed reached… 50kph approximately. Accidents/incidents. Marengo. Lost a shoe once… 🥴 that’s it! Tequila. Fell in a hole “minor cuts and abrasions”. Choked on muesli “vet called, cleared to ride in 12h”.Luisa. Got sad because her shoes were wet. Pete. Dislocated finger. So what’s the biggest issue we had? Honestly… this was so smooth, so efficient, so effortless the biggest issue was 24/7 with each other 🫣🤭🤫I don’t want to say it was easy. It was of course a big challenge but it really felt easy. Stuff just WORKED. We have super strong horses, WE FEED AND RESTED THEM PROPERLY ABD DID NOT OVERLOAD THEM… and as a result it was… easy. Saddles fitted perfectly, gear worked perfectly, clothing turned to rags but you get that… but all in all… the ride was an effortless success. Now comes the honest truth part. Yes. The ride was easy, hoof care worked well, saddles and gear worked well. But we look back on our performance on our first ride and literally CRINGE. We have grown so much and realise that back then we thought we knew what we were doing… nope… not a clue. Now we make it look a lot better. But we NEVER stop learning unless we stop questioning things. We do not lie to you guys, we share everything with you, and in doing so we risk ridicule and harassment. But that’s just the nature of the beast and unless that criticism comes from a better horseman than us… we take it with a big pinch of salt. If anyone wants to call us out on our horses condition they are welcome to visit the property. Should they want a vet check and or blood tests done to determine if we ruined our horses… happy to have them pop €s in my account and I’ll pay to get the vet out. But I’m not spending what little money we have to prove anything to anyone. This ride has proven that our cavalry style of movement WORKS, our saddles KICK ARSE, and we can finally ride at both the speed and distances of those who came before us in a completely unsupported manner. I don’t think there’s anything more to say… this ride was an incredible experience and blinding success.

Firstly… THANK YOU. Thank you for all the support, the encouragement, and understanding. Long riding is tough and as much as I just shrug it off and say with what must sound like total arrogance “meh, it’s just what I do”, it is actually very hard. Yes, I absolutely live for this and as around 1/4 of my whole life has been spent sleeping rough in the jungles of the South Pacific, on a freezing kiwi mountain, or beside a horse… it just feels normal for me. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy for Luisa, or that I’m not VERY happy to be home. And it certainly does NOT mean it’s easy for the horses.

So… the horses. This morning I walked up to each holding a saddle, placed it beside them, then took a heart rate. Both 28. 28 means recovered, rested, ready to work. Both FLEW through my vet check and I’ll post videos of their condition shortly. In short… they are READY TO GO TODAY, so they aren’t in the slightest bit worn out.

So today will be rest, post ride clean up, with a debrief tonight.

So… we made it home SAFE!!!!

Boys CRUSHED 30km in 3 hours but we have taken a longer, flatter way home with no roads to negotiate. Now… we’ve hit our mountain. 24km to the front door and I’d say we’ll knock off about 60km in 7 hours today. Some may cry. But I don’t care. These Arabian horses have spent months building up to be ridden like this and with 4 months off at the end of it… well… I just don’t know what to say. But if you think we’re going to fast, come check the horses. They are doing a superb job and don’t even break a sweat. REMEMBER!!! We are LIGHTER THAN THE AVERAGE ENDURANCE RIDER EVEN IN FULL KIT!

This ride will stand as testament to just how amazing Arabian horses truely are.

Coming home in Swazi rags. Absolutely fu**ed. Complete fu***ng rubbish. What in the F**K were they thinking moving production overseas. Cellphones just fell through the pocket and off the horse. So sad to see another company fall to the pages of history for me.

“Makers of the world’s toughest outdoor gear” yeah fu***ng right! 55 days and it’s a rag.

I have dug up old footage from Kazakhstan and I have found all I need to make the “how drunk can I ride a horse” video. It’s… astounding how drunk I can ride and what I do when drunk. What’s this space… 100,000k likes on the page based off hate 🤣😂🤣
