Ok. Got the bloodbay horse and started to ride around on it, finally!!!

At lvl35, the first three quests to get the mount were quite easy. Deliver a horse to bree. Deliver another to the shire. Deliver the last to the dwarf town in ND. Done.

The final quest before getting the actual riding skill involved a timed session on a horse in a closed circuit. In this quest, I was able to get to the first gate, but somehow got booted off the horse after taking a wrong turn for the second gate. I then ran back to the starting point, but the horse would not permit me to click on it. Thinking that I probably failed the quest, I started searching for the location of all the gates that I was supposed to go through.

Once I returned to the stablemaster to re-start the quest, I found out that I had actually completed the entire quest on foot!!!

Can't say I'm the first to get the mount or the horse, but I can probably brag about being te first to complete the closed circuit on foot... :oops:

Haha nice, it took me forever to complete that quest because I kept getting lost. But I finally got my Chestnut mare and I love it!
