Will I be able to ride any more?

4. Try riding, just trail riding. But if you can't, I'd definitely give driving a go.

I worked for years with standardbreds and drafts, and you can get really close to them while driving. It's the gait, the feel of them, their smell, their motion. I still ride, too, but have a bum knee, so nothing fancy anymore. But I enjoy driving, especially my drafts.
We pull logs, use a forecart, and also just go by buggy. It's fun.

Good luck to you.
