An equine escape

If you drive by the camping spots in Ulu Yam, Selangor, on the winding road towards Batang Kali, don’t be surprised if you encounter horses trotting by. They come from Kem Kembara Hulu Yam Baru, a favourite meeting place of equine joyriders.  

I have to admit, I have never ridden a horse, but it looked easy enough. I reckoned if someone told me where the brakes and pedals were, I would be able to pull it off. But I assure you now, it isn’t as easy as it seems.
