Why is the carriage driver's seat wedge-shaped? What's the difference in configuration between modern vehicles and antique ones? Hint: did you know that British men in the 1870s were on average five inches shorter than British men in the 1970s? Watch Paul (uncomfortably) demonstrate what it's like in the driver's seat!

Many thanks to the Houston Area Carriage Association for the invitation to speak to the Club about Achenbach driving and our experiences with it! We enjoyed the chance to share a meal with our carriage driving friends, to talk a bit about our past driving experiences, and to demonstrate the Achenbach driving technique using our rein machine! We hope everyone enjoyed the event as much as we did!

Enjoy a summer day with Ranch Ride Carriage Drive - we're busy with lessons, helping to manage cattle and crops, and challenging Fen with new training experiences! Along the way we were treated to the sight of a crop duster at work, and a dust devil churning through our hayfield.
