Favorite rain gear on a budget.....Army Navy
surplus camouflage (sp?) poncho....a coated nylon with hood....fits over helmet
so no water down the neck....Sides are snapped together, so they are
vented...and large enough to cover saddle and most of horses' butt, and 1/2 way
down my legs and I am 5' 7"

Is it going to hurt my horse to ride in the rain if I have a
rump rug on her? It won't stop raining here and I am tired of
waiting. I'm also wondering, is it going to hurt me? Because it
seems like even when I have a raincoat on I still get pretty soaked.
My husband did his first 100 miler in the rain... and it
rained and rained and rained. They completed with no ill effects of the rain
other than running out of enough dry clothes to change
into.
