Re: RC: Getting Pulled

["Nancy Mitts" <mitts_n@hotmail.com>]

David,
I think knowing at what point a horse pulled on a 100 would be interesting. 
For myself, I'm more likely to pull for minor things (early in a ride)when 
riding a 100, because it's just so far to go. And who wants to go 80 and 
have to pull. If I'm at a 50 mile check & in camp and everythings not 100%, 
I'm outta there!
But as a ride manager I cringe at the thought of more things to keep track 
of..........
