Dear Sandy,

Don't tempt me! What specifically do you (and the group) think REALLY
needs to be determined at a ride? I'd be interested in getting some input
to devise a study that A) hasn't been done before (Sue G, Gayle Ecker and
the guys at Michigan have already covered a lot of ground) and B) would
provide new and really relevant data as to the well-being of our horses 
under actual trail conditions. We would probably want to follow horses 
in at least two (ideally more) rides-one tough (OD) and the other flat, "easy", 
preferably the same horses in both. Darn, just what I need-another project
generating more reems of data to analyze. And just when I've really started
having fun competing!
