    At Hog Wild I rode many miles with them all of them uneventful.  The few times we past riders it was on a fire road and nothing dangerous about it.


    Hi Monica,

    I am still recovering from a dive and my daughter's horse is resting yet - so didn't even get out.  I agree that if people witnessed these things, they should have spoken with you IMMEDIATELY, as we did at Hog Wild, when Laura's junior - who goes to my daughter's school - nearly knocked my daughter off of her horse whilst cutting a corner trying to catch up to Laura who was well out of sight. This girl slammed right into my daughter;s horse knocking my daughter's foot from her stirrup and causing her horse to lurch out into the roadway, right in front of MY horse causing HIM to slam on the breaks.  I ABSOLUTELY agree that she should be reported. Why? Because many HAVE seen her continue to endanger others - riders, bikers, etc - and with no regard for either rules or even common decency. I believe you when you say you haven't SEEN her do anything so despicable - but many others have - and some more than once. Indeed, she WAS penalized, though not nearly enough to satisfy those of us who have been run off trails, body slamm ed and nearly run over by her and her entourage. It is no one's imagination. What I want to know - and someone who is more in the know please help here - what to do next? I for one don't want her anywhere NEAR me, nor God KNOWS my daughter, nor any of the students we ride with occasionally in the park.

    I tell my kids - when a dog nips at you, probably you want to be very cautious about him. If be bites again - stay clear away. If he bites a third time, you take him to the ground any way you can and call the Sherrif. I don't understand why we allow PEOPLE to behave in such a dangerous way. We have had two - TWO - dangerous encounters with this woman - and this is JUST my daughter and I! What will it take? Someone please advise. s
