I did not realize the L-23 needed the bridle.. I thought (at least the ones
I've been associated with) L-23s came with a TOST CG hook.

Some have it. I have two Blanik L-23's for training and checkrides at
Marfa. One has the side bridal attachments like on the L-13, the other
has the CG hook. Both have nose hooks, of course.

Keep those side bridal release mechanisms clean and lubricated as they
are activated by the same yellow release handle as your nose hook, and
can get a bit sticky. Check them often even if you are not using them.
I use Kroil brand aviation spray lubricant.
