And even though someone had ridden Nas yesterday, and I figured out why his saddle was slipping. -he’s in a wide gullet, but after checking he actually now needs a medium wide woo hoo-. Despite knowing this I was determined to ride today.

Until it just hit me, Hang on if his saddle is slipping me really don’t want it slipping back to the weak part of his back while I am riding him. Hence the need for a shopping trip. I also put a weigh tape on him and he’s at around the 1280 mark which is a nice weight for him.

I now need to really up his game and properly start fittening and suppling him up. Ready for when my weight is down and we can finally get out and about together.

I shall hold of riding him until, we have changed the gullet and seen how he goes. I’m still sticking to my diet, even if it is a bit abstract. the principles are still there and I’m being good.
