Justin Bieber shows off cowboy skills during horse ride

Pop star Justin Bieber got back to nature on Monday (12May14) with a horse ride in the Hollywood hills.

The Baby hitmaker showed off his cowboy skills as he joined a group of pals for a mounted trek in California.

A topless Bieber was snapped riding a white stallion while wearing a fedora hat.

He shared his experience with fans, uploading a picture of him on the horse, alongside the caption, "Pure bred stallion", before adding, "Is that young Indiana Jones. #skintightpants #igottachill."

However, taking off his top in the California sun may not have been a good idea - he later wrote "burnt" on his Twitter.com page.
