Look at my horse,
My horse is amazing
Give it a lick
Mmm, It tastes just like raisins
Have a stroke of its mane
It turns into a plane
And then it turns back again
When you tug on its winky
Ohh that's dirty
Do you think think so?
Well I'd better not show you
Where the lemonade is made
Sweet lemonade
Mmm sweet lemonade
Sweet lemonade
Yeah sweet lemonade
Get on my horse
I'll take you 'round the universe
And all the other places too
I think you'll find that the universe
Pretty much covers everything
Shut up woman get on my horse!

Related: do horses (I assume any loaned would be light horses?) have special carry capacities (like ponies), or is it just based on Str?
Though, lacking any formal training in how to Ride, I'd probably be better off footslogging it along with Kilthan...

Strength based, but a multiplier for a quadruped. (I think there might be another multiplier in their too, but not sure).
An untrained light horse has 16 str. An untrained heavy horse has 18 str.
A combat trained light horse has 18 str, a combat trained heavy horse has 20 str.
(a reg. pony has 13 str, a combat trained pony has 17 str)
--> don't ask me why pony combat training is more efficient >_<

So about this eagle...
I'll bet any of you 50g that it's Mardoc messing with us to bait out exactly the type of unrealistic responses to a bird appearing in the sky as we're showing

I bet it's an evil mage that can control animals!

Actually, I would consider an eagle at the start of an adventure to be a good omen, or at least a sign of friendly spirits. My character probably would have written a poem, challenges someone to a friendly duel, or gone off on a quick hunting run, hoping my good fortune would find some small game within the hour.
Only reason I'm not taking the horse is because she gets a bit skidding in the trees. I figure, while im looking for game, I might as well see if there is anything unusual about this eagle. Most mundane case: we find a dead animal or two- useful for at least a day's rations once cooked. I could start a quick fire to dry the meat when we get back, as I didn't bring any salt

Ride is more a "stay on horse while in combat" than knowing how to stay on a horse while getting from A to B

I've no interest in having a large quadruped anywhere near me when I'm trying to sneak up on someone to stab them, but utilising one for transport beforehand (and afterwards) seems like an excellent idea.
