My response to NC debate

["Lisa P." <bludoglady@juno.com>]

Tami,
I have not responded yet, because I tend to say things that get the
flames going. (Right Patti?) :0) Anyway, I agree with your assessment. I
would love to have 500 LIFETIME miles for rider, and 250 miles for
horse/rider combo. I think to that there should be at least, if not all
of those miles 50-100. Although I will be doing LDs for practice and
learning, I really believe to be of "Championship" material you should do
most of your rides at 50s.
Not all of us on Ridecamp are thin-skinned. A lot of us new people come
here to learn. Sometimes in our eagerness to be a part of the group we
forget not everyone is reasonable. I liked the signature in one listers
post. It read; Common sense is not all that common. How true for this and
a lot of other email lists! I am glad you stayed! 

In His Hands,
Lisa P.
