Anyone missing their horse?

Hell I feel relived. Just looking at it figured it was owned by the guy in the fancy brown leather jacket. Oh hell sarcasm at its best.
 
It made me nostalgic for my horses. I'd ride that saddle, no worries, for hours without issue. Firm seat beats a cushiony seat!

I don't see many foot forward stirrups around here.
I always lifted my butt off the saddle and let my bent knees absorb the shock on anything faster than a walk.
Seems to me that shape and foot placement would cause a broken tailbone and ruptured discs.

Shape and sitting position is VERY important with a firm seat.
 
Nice artistic piece. Despite the chrome being bright, it look like there is a hole in the valve cover so I am not sure it actually runs.
