For these middle-agers, horses are more than a hobby: they are a way of life. Some of these celebrity horse riders may surprise you with their athletic abilities (more than a few of these famous faces still compete on horseback!)
Here's a middle-aged man that may surprise you with his cowboy savvy. Not only does he have a 900-acre ranch in Montana, he took off time from the movies in 1998 to become a professional roper (which is not an easy sport to master) for a few years (twice winning national titles.)
