Ridecamp: RE: [RC] Sanctioning riders

Yes Truman, you are correct in the rule but you did not go
far enough. The rule states:

4. Entry to a ride may be refused for cause. 4.1  Cause is
defined as a specific occurrence, substantiated by   direct
and corroborated evidence of, including but not limited to,
one of the following: *    Non-payment of ride fees, such as
insufficient funds check   not made good. *    Abuse of an
equine, such as drugging or continuing to ride after being
pulled without the specific permission of a ride vet.

There are procedures that can be followed in order to deal
with type of
thing. However, the AERC rules are very specific about " ...
entry
cannot be denied without cause..." - I'm sure Bob will give
us the rule
number :-). So this would probably end up in the lap of the
protest
committee for final resolution. The RM can file a protest
based on
"unsportman like conduct" which has been done it the past.

The procedures are in place, concerned people need to use
them.
