RE: [RC] [RC] Ft. Valley: Let em' race! - Bob Morris

So soon every one forgets the incident in Montana where a
bystander was seriously injured while riders raced to the
finish. The riders were severely castigated for their
actions by the AERC.

It is not the fault of the riders. The race to the finish is
well established by past experience, it is the
responsibility of management to provide a safe venue.

They may both be the best thing since peanut butter but
thats not going to
help the newbie walking on the side of the rode whose horse
freaks out
because this train is bearing down on them is it? As I
privately mentioned
to Tom today, by a coincidence,on the same day you wrote
your e-mail, there
are THREE e-mails from other riders who had problems with
their horses in
various races for no known reason to themselves.(other then
maybe a lack of
skill?). Let's face it, horses freak easy. Accidents happen
easy, NOBODY can
ride it with their eyes closed, NOBODY knows every rock and
NOBODY is immune
to disaster! I'm also very sure that if something happened
that was caused
(even partailly) by either of these riders or management
everyone would feel
just awful but the victim would still be the victim! I don't
expect anyone
to change anything and hopefully I'm totally wrong and
nothing will ever
happen but they're pushing their luck the way it is! Thats
all.
