Re: [RC] [RC] Director at Large - Deanna German
Can someone who knows please tell us the amount to recover miles ridden as a
non-member? $50 for 50 miles sounds a little extreme to me, but if I was
going for that 1000 mile mark on a 20YO horse (and $1200+ spent on ride
fees), suddenly it doesn't sound as extreme.
Another distance riding group I'm in charges $10 or $20 to recover
unreported miles (reporting doesn't happen automatically) and I believe
that's per year of unreported miles, so if one had 3 - 5 years of unreported
miles, one would have to pay somewhere between $30 and $100 to recover those
miles.
Just another reason (incentive) to join. :-) Look at it this way: even if it
turns out to be $50, that's about what it would have cost you to join
(figuring in the non-member fee) so it's a wash.
Or you could just let the miles go until someday when you want to reclaim
them.
