Nationals Qualifications.


I was there, I rode, I saw the first place horse in the 100 who was awesome.
I know the vets, I know the RM, I know half the riders.  I know what a great
sacrifice it was to put this on.  I know what fun we all had.

HOW DARE YOU  insult everyone who rode the National Championship Ride last
year!

<<I qualified last year to ride in the 50 mile Nationals, but I didn't
consider the ride to be important enough to be hauling across the Nation to
ride with relative newbies like myself.  I could do that here locally, thank
you.  I qualified with only 200 AERC miles to my name and never top 10'ing
overall, so you could hardly call me championship material last year.
We have a lot of top riders out West that may have travelled to ride the
Nationals if they thought the competition was worth it.  With the
qualifications as they were last year, it was almost a joke as who you were
competing against>>>>
