Hadrian's Cavalry Turma!
#1
I've put a few images up on Flickr if anybody wants to see what happened. More as I sort through them.

In the experiment session we attempted three ranks (most of the performance was in two), the cuneus, and the testudo with varying degrees of success (partly because some of the horses took against the film crew's drone - DJI Phantom for nerds).

Having seen the ragged wheeling on the practice day, it just kept getting better and better!

Whole thing is going to be written up (Maxime Petitjean was busy interviewing the riders for detailed feedback) in JRMES 19 (the cavalry ROMEC volume) to appear in 2018.
