Also someone saying "eyeglasses" is pretty rare. They're glasses.

He's spot on about horseback riding though.

My family is very active in the local equestrian circles. Everyone just refers to it as "riding". When I speak about it with people outside of the equestrian community I will use "horse riding" and "horseback riding" interchangeably, but I tend to use "horse riding" more. I think it just depends on how quickly/formal I'm speaking.
