The 6 horse hitch is the jewel of the Brome Fair. Drivers must perform a variety of maneuvers guiding approximately 12,000 pounds of animals around a crowded arena.
I felt the earthquake beneath my feet as I was capturing all of this and at the same time trying not to get run over. It was an experience I will never forget.

Oh yes – if I wasn’t scared of my own shadow (really – it’s a Tortie thing)- I’d be stalking on over there to see those beauties!

LOL probably better to just look at the pictures. Safer that way. They are very gentle horses but can be a bit clumsy sometimes. π

At an average weight of 2,000 pounds we do look kind of tiny to them. π
