And it was November we last drove. He was fine!! really enjoyed it though flicked his ears a bit when we put him to. We only did a mile back to the field AND we had a flat, but it's a private road!
There was a gig for sale at a local agricultural sale and I was keen on it, so we had to do some measuring to see if it would fit.
Unfortunately it went for way over my budget, so it's the exercise cart for a bit longer LOL!

Glad he went well, are you planning on getting out and about in the cart this summer then (once the puncture has been fixed !)

Not in any shows or anything, but more on the roads around home to get him used to coping with traffic with the cart - should be fine, he's great with traffic when ridden. I've got another lady to come out with me so that lets Mike off the hook a bit!
Biggest worry is a tractor - we live in a very agricultural area and some of the tractors look like Mount Everest coming towards you LOL! harley took to the bank the other day to get past one - not advisable with a gig!!

 Yikes!! Harley's going to have to rethink his strategies when it comes to tractors. But sounds like he's a really good boy for you in harness all in all
