Riding! That's right folks, the land equivalent of the Sailing skill!

Lol it's obviously fake (take a good look at the Minigames part), but you have to give the guy credit.
Topic I found on the official Runescape forums.

Could tell right away it's fake.The padding around the skill doesn't match the padding around the others. Plus the line doesn't extend all the way down on the right side.

Well, Explosion, I thought we were just gonna keep pushin each other until we got OVER 9000!?!?
But that game is oddly addicting..
And there are other erm.. *gems* like this in the official forums.. and ones like these make me rofl. And now I have a place to share them ^-^'
[Edit] thank you to whoever added the [FAKE] =)

The icon didn't really match the style of the others.

Riding doesn't sound cool enough to be a skill. Jagex would have come up with a clever name, like excursion or globe-trotting. One or two skills have been leaked this way; I remember seeing the icons before their official release.

I clicked on this thread with very low expectations, so I walk away with my pride still in tact. Btw, Jagex has admitted that Riding would never be introduced as a skill.

It may not be introduced as a skill but I wouldn't be surprised that with the summoning update they allow you to ride your beasts of burden. Either that or they just introduce a few new familiars.

This shows that sailing has gone off player's mind for the moment, i hope...

Haha, it's a nice idea, and a nice fake at that too

I wonder whether he did it through PS or by html manipulation by copying the source code. I've made a few fakes before using PS but it's so much easier and so much quicker just by playing around with the html on notebook or an equivalent program.
I am waiting for a new RS skill, I believe they said somewhere they had one in the making, but it'll be interesting to see what possibilities are left to them.

10/10 for the idea, 0/10 for the fake.
Pretty clever but you can tell it is a fake easily. :P
I give the guy credit for trying.
