Not riding a horse does riding a dirt bike count lol

Mini storytime I know a national champion arabian almost broke her leg over this tiny white butterfly XD

lol yes!  I was riding my pony mare through some woods and a monarch butterfly crossed our path and Spirit would not move.  Then she spun around and galloped off with me.  Painful, I finally got it under control.
