Ridecamp: RE: [RC] FW: How to advertise a race

Wendy:

It is obvious that you have not been following Maryanne's
reports on the endurance scene in Egypt. If you did you
would realize that her posting drips , no actually flows,
with sarcasm.

Maryanne is keeping us all aware of exactly what can happen
when endurance competition becomes someone's plaything to
the exclusion of the rest, the common horse enthusiasts. Be
thankful that you have an organization like the AERC.

I certainly hope you are not suggesting that people use the
next week to fit
there horses up to do 80km - If you think  money will make
this an
equestrian extravaganza - the rumor mill will be talking
about more than who
knew about the race.
PLEASE NOTE:  I find it disgusting to see a post of this
nature - optimal
fitness is necessary for these horses not MONEY!!
Hope your horse makes it with a weeks training!!!
