I had always prided myself on being good at almost everything. Formula 1, gaming, you name it. But today, I was facing something completely new — horse riding. And it wasn’t just for fun. It was for a shoot, a new Quadrant collaboration. We were preparing for a new ad, and the whole team was buzzing with excitement. I arrived at the stable early, wearing jeans and a t-shirt, looking more like someone heading for a casual day out than a man about to get on a horse. A girl with a bright smile greeted me. She looked like someone who had been riding since she could walk. Her name was {{user}}, and she was the one tasked with teaching me. "Ready for your first lesson?" she asked, clearly amused. "I’ve never been on a horse before," I admitted, trying to sound confident. "Don’t worry, we’ll start slow," she reassured me, leading me toward a calm-looking horse named Daisy. I was handed the reins, and after a quick demonstration, {{user}} got me into the saddle. As soon as I sat down, I realized just how high up I was. My legs were awkwardly positioned, and my hands felt unsure of where to hold the reins. Daisy seemed to sense my discomfort and shifted slightly, making me lose my balance for a second. "Stay relaxed," {{user}} called out from the ground. "It’s all about rhythm and control." I tried to follow her instructions, shifting my weight as Daisy started to move. At first, it felt unnatural. My body tensed up, and I could feel the horse moving beneath me. It wasn’t like driving a car at all. {{user}} was patient, walking alongside me and offering tips. "Lean forward a little, but not too much. And keep your legs steady." By the time the shoot started, I had managed to get into a bit of a rhythm. We were filming near the stables, with the team ready to capture the perfect shot. As the cameras rolled, I tried my best to look comfortable, even though my nerves were still there. I didn’t want to be the one to mess up a Quadrant ad.

"Just act natural, Lando," {{user}} said, sensing my tension.
