Brockport Bill 1,661 #1 Posted June 16, 2022 I was wondering what a post topic would produce of where your Wheel Horse has perhaps traveled to? I always appreciate the Red Sq's various family photos - especially of the children and grandkids out riding the horses themselves, or with a Dad or Mom -- or in the lap of a grandparent, aunt, uncle, or older sibling! So thought you get some entertainment from a horse taking a drive to school. Here are 2 photos of my grandson's 520HC taking him to school this week -- of course perfectly parked in the school lot -- but I'm disappointed the school didn't have a designated hitching post for horses. 5 19 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnnymag3 2,520 #4 Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) I sure hope the Cart is locked at the hitch...and the key is not in the ignition.!!! Curious HORSE THIEFS seen in the area !! VERY COOL …. Maybe the light pole base would have been a good hitchin post.... Edited June 16, 2022 by johnnymag3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 9,981 #10 Posted June 16, 2022 Lucky lad. That's something he couldn't do over here. Anything driven on the road has to be registered and 16yrs is the earliest you can get a licence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,852 #11 Posted June 16, 2022 Awesome Stuff Bill! We have about 2 miles of property line now, that’s the furthest we’ve gone around here yet.. with them driving. Otherwise, one of our Horses originated in NC as far as I know. It has gone to the Big Show, and as far north and west as Portage, WI or nearby @WHX?? plow day too. Got a handful in MD last fall too. Lots of road miles they’ve traveled! My little buddy niece has traveled the furthest at one time with me I bet. She’s been known to cruise for up to two hours of driving at a time… even if her eyes are closed! 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,852 #14 Posted June 16, 2022 As mentioned, we have quite a bit of road frontage, having an L shaped field. When crops are on it, we stay off. This is 2018, our first family tractor ride. We were about 1/4 mile from the driveway. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OutdoorEnvy 1,522 #15 Posted June 16, 2022 MY 312-8 joined the kids baseball team briefly for field duty for a bit. Kids always got a kick out of it! There was a lot talk with dad on the way back to the cars..."Dad we should get one of those..." 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
