Didja Know?

Never remove the saddle pad and expose a wet back either to the hot rays of the sun or to sudden cooling. The pressure of the saddle restricts the blood supply and thus weakens the tissues of the back. In this condition, a hot sun more readily burns or inflames the skin, while sudden cooling contracts the blood vessels and prevents the proper return of the blood to nourish the tissues.
