I think the late Queen was riding horses into her 70s.

This was a kick from a horse; but these people are around horses almost from birth. They’ve probably all been injured numerous times.

You’re right. I’m sure they’ve been injured numerous times over a lifetime of riding horses. However, when a horse injures you when you’re 70 it’s a big damn deal. Old people don’t bend, they break.

I think the Queen rode until she was in her 90s. I think she had a dead broke, bomb proof native pony.

Queen Elizabeth 2 was still riding horses until her death at age 96. She & Princess Anne are/were tough ladies. She was also an Army vehicle mechanic in WW2- working on engines, replacing brakes & changing out damaged parts. She was also a devout Christian. She was a good lady. God rest her soul! Im glad shes back with her husband of 75 years again. I wonder if Hillary or Pelosi or AOC would be willing to do similar- get their hands & faces filthy-greasy & help out the war effort & the people of their nation. My guess is..... probably not! 🫣
