Do you have to be a cert in weight to ride a horse?

Question

I want to ride a horse

Answer 1

In horse racing, you need to be light so that the horse can run well.  Heavier riders can be excercise riders, but not jockeys.  How much do you weigh?

To race, yes; the lighter the better.  For any other kind of riding, no.  You can get whatever size horse you need to match your weight.
