But - not quite. Because they are small, an adult really can’t get all of their fingers in the handles. So you hold your reins correctly, thumbs on top, and then I push the handles down in the opening where the reins are. So, essentially, the rider has the reins and the cup handles between thumb and forefinger. I’ll try to get a picture of someone actually riding with one this weekend.
