2. Recreational horseback riding and Corona
The Corona rules were not always clear. The federations often had to work with not too clear measures. In Belgium, recreational horseback riding was even banned during the first lockdown, which caused great indignation. The article in which this was announced is the second most read article of 2020.
The death of Totilas went through the horse world like a shock wave. All the Corona news disappeared into the background for a moment and current events seemed to be about only one thing: the phenomenal black stallion. He had his greatest successes under the saddle of the Dutchman Edward Gal, who was left with a broken heart after his death.
