Sorry for the rant. But anybody who includes the skilled "Equestrian" on a list of "non athletes" has obviously never done it. Hunt Seat Equitation on the flat... or, more particularly, over fences, takes great ability, tremendous strength, incredible balance, well-developed and highly- practiced technical skills and, most of all... courage.

If those are not the marks of a true "athlete" - I don't know what they are!
