Endurance.Net Ridecamp Archives

Please note who is helping out from endurance.  The Ambassador 
Endurance organisation ?????  This seems to be made up of ex-FEI (well, 
I would hope that they are ex) who seem to be mainly promoting the UAE. 
The home page for the site is most enlightening and probably contains 
more pictures of  a certain patron of equestrian sport than almost 
anyone needs. They also have the nerve to list Egypt as a participant.  
There hasn't been an honest endurance race in this country in the last 
two years....and the Ambassador's race was a total fiasco, albeit 
highly entertaining locally.
