"From Lambretta to Triumph Tiger, the saddle takes us on thrilling rides across continents and eras. Whether it's the sleek Lambretta motor scooter or the powerful Triumph Tiger 1050, every rider knows the importance of a comfortable and reliable saddle for their adventures. Even royalty understands the significance of a well-crafted saddle, as HRH Queen Elizabeth II proudly sits atop her Harley Davidson Heritage Springer during Trooping of the Colour. The elegance and grace she exudes is matched only by her choice in saddles. In the world of horse racing, three jockeys fiercely battle for first place, their determination evident from a front view perspective. Their trust lies in their saddles as they navigate Eclipse, a Dark Chestnut Racehorse held by a groom with an experienced jockey ready to conquer any challenge that comes their way. But it's not just racing where saddles play an integral role; even bucking broncos require sturdy saddles to withstand their wild antics. A blacksmith diligently shoeing Metropolitan Police horses ensures these noble creatures are equipped with proper gear before patrolling city streets. Traveling further around the globe, we find camels and riders at Egypt's iconic Giza Pyramids – UNESCO World Heritage Site. These majestic animals rely on traditional saddles to carry tourists through this historic wonderland. Closer to home in Calgary Stampede, W Ritchie fearlessly tackles Lightning Creek astride his trusted steed while showcasing his exceptional horsemanship skills. The right saddle allows him to maintain control during daring maneuvers that captivate audiences worldwide. Finally, taking us back in time is an enchanting glimpse into history with a vintage photograph capturing a jockey and saddle from c1900. This timeless image reminds us of how long humans have relied on these essential tools for equestrian pursuits throughout centuries. "
