Ridecamp: Re: [RC] DILUTE NOT

Larry,

 

Why don't you go back and re-read Randy's post? LD has evolved from what it once was in the 80s.

Here we go again..a 25 LD is not and never has been a race...do they race...Yep they do..lots of times it's whip and spur...we had this issue 20 years ago...my question is yes they do contribute to the coffers, but how far do we dilute endurance...if enough riders want a 2 miler do we have one.  I have nothing against LD I ride them once in a while ..the purpose is to introduce novice riders to the sport or to bring horses back...but plllleeeaaassssseeee awards top ten BC for LD...gag me with a hoofpick...this is not endurance.  Keep endurance just that...trailrides are trailrides....LL
