Bareback!

Well, we've finally done it. We made it to 5,000 player experience points this afternoon, earning us the long-anticipated Bareback Award! This means that we can now ride bareback on any horse with over 1,000 experience points. 

I, Lily, was the one playing our avatar when this happened. I was in the show jumping arena on Marshy, competing on Ophelia and Galileo. (Show jumping was the bonus arena, and those two equines are the only ones with much training so far.)

It was the 6 experience points Ophelia and I gained in a round of Group III jumping that brought us from 4,996 experience to 5,002. (We got 6th place out of 8 horses... someday we'll invest in fancy tack...)

So, anyway, I called over Bethany, Ophelia's owner, and let her have the honor of riding our first pony bareback for the first time. Here she is:

Ophelia
Aww! 

We didn't stop there, obviously. We had to try out all of our 1,000+ horses bareback.

Galileo
Ravine
Yetta
Lysithea
Arion
Solitaire
Nightshade
Fortunado
Flora
Kestrel
Yay! I'm sure we will all thoroughly enjoy having saddles and bridles be optional now. The horses look so free this way. :)
