How to horse ride
It made me 
"Completely worth the effort"
How I did it: I did some local trail rides but they were pretty flat and not very challenging. I spoke to a family neighbor who had horses and I got involved that way. She had me take care of the horses including mucking out, feeding, grooming. She was a great teacher and would test my comfort zone slowly but was great at encouraging me. It took me a little longer because I wasn't always around.
Lessons & tips: I would definitely try and find a place where you can become familiar with the horses and can help in their upkeep.
Resources: I think the only way you can learn is to have trial and error, just find an understanding and patient teacher!
