Can I Go For Horse Riding After Inguinal Hernia Surgery?

I had inguinal hernia surgery 5 years ago on my left side. Since then I have been under the impression that it would not be a good idea to go horseback riding. Is this true? My girlfriend really wants us to go but not at the risk of chancing something happening to me.
